*drum roll please*
Our judges have deliberated, cogitated and digested, and would like to offer their hearty congratulations to the authors of the top three stories named (in no particular order) below!
The winning story will be revealed at the competition event on Tuesday 11th July, starting at 7.30pm (doors open at 7pm), when it will be read alongside the two runners-up by our marvellous actors. Who will triumph? Will it be spectating skulls, wandering words, or OAPs with antlers? You'll have to come along to find out ... Click here for the Facebook event and further details.
HEADS & TAILS COMPETITION: TOP THREE STORIES
Day of Skulls by Simon Sylvester
Mustard Moon by Sarah Evans
The Special Circumstances of Mr Oakeshott by Paul Currion
The night will also feature an interview with the winning author(s) by Rupert Dastur of our competition partners Theshortstory.co.uk, plus our usual book quiz and loads of Jelly Babies. Tickets cost £5 on the door (cash only, no advance booking) and seating is unreserved - so it's a good idea to get there a bit ahead of time if you want a good table. Accessibility note: access to the basement bar is via stairs - there's no lift, alas.
The venue is downstairs at:
The Phoenix
37 Cavendish Square
London
W1G 0PP
(The Phoenix is five minutes' walk from Oxford Circus tube station, which is on the Victoria, Bakerloo and Central lines). Map here.
P.S. Because they were so good, we've decided to award the shortlisted authors of the three stories below consolatory prizes of free entry to the event, plus a Liars' League anthology of their choice: we hope to see them - and you - on Tuesday 11th!
