NEXT EVENT: TOIL & TROUBLE (pre-Hallowe'en show) on Tuesday 8th October.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Sunday 1st September
Our annual Women & Girls special, where all the writers, protagonists and readers are female, featured six authors, from the US, Ireland, Australia and UK - and six excellent actresses too, of course. Together they gave us tales of witty bankers, hyper-connected dystopias, vulpine lovers, lonely Durham teens, Snow White gone wrong, and dating dilemmas of the giant spider.
