Stories from the Waterside Top 5

Closed20 Dec, 2022, 11:39 - 23 Jan, 2023, 23:59

As you know, every year we have held an evening of story reading from the “Stories from the Waterside collection” to coincide with World Wetlands Day or World Waters Day.

This Stories from the Waterside event has proved extremely popular, and we have had numerous requests to run the event again to celebrate World Wetlands Day on 2nd December 2022. This time specifically focusing on stories which have not yet been read out.

So we thought it would be nice to ask you, our Stories from the Waterside writers community to suggest which stories should be considered, by way of a popular vote.

All of the stories are published on the website Stories from the waterside, and can be searched by county or key thematic areas.

We invite you, your families and friends to read the selection, perhaps over Christmas break might be a good time, and pick out your favourite stories for consideration. We will then approach the authors of the top five stories with a view to reading out their story and, if they are happy to do so or have someone read on their behalf, we will put them on the programme for the night.

We will need to have your top 5 selected stories in by Monday January 17th

When you have your top 5 selected please press "Submit" at the bottom of the form.

The closing date has passed and submissions are no longer being accepted.
