The end of 2016 needs laughter and genius in equal measure – it’s been quite a year. Luckily, Talking Tales #11 is going to defy the dodgy exit polls and deliver on its promises.

What we promise is all of this:

• Stories of humour, comedy, the surreal and absurd, but most of all…THE FUNNY!
• The launch of the To Hull and Back Short Story Anthology 2016 brought to you by the amazing Mr Christopher Fielden
• Fabulous readings by some fabulous authors
• The best cover in history
• Gratuitous use of the word ‘awesome’ – don’t say I didn’t warn you
• And you? A few places remain for submissions on a humorous theme.

Submissions for Talking Tales#11 close on 2nd December.
