Love is…they say…the sweetest thing.

So just after Valentine’s Day, whilst you’re still flushed from being on the sharp end of Cupid’s arrow,  Talking Tales #12 is going to spice things up a little!

TT12 isn’t just themed. TT12 is BAD EROTICA themed.

That’s right, we’ll be unfurling the petals of some naughty, saucy and silly stories. We shall be breathless with excitement and throbbing with anticipation as 5o shades of Stokes Croft becomes a reality.

I am told that dress-up is encouraged: ‘fishnets, glitter, sequins, feather boas, drag …anything you fancy. The more outrageous and colourful, the better’, I think this means on the night, although if you want to dress up whilst writing a submission, I’m sure that would be fine too.

We shall conclude..as ever…with the audience inspired orgy of wit that is Finish The Lines and the award of badges.

Submissions for Talking Tales#12 close on 10th February.
