Colchester WriteNight invite you into their ‘Open Book’ of tales, vignettes and stories they conjured up during lockdown 2020. From goats and Rollers to gallery nudes, pork scratchings and the increasingly elusive Willow Wiffle, these stories will make you laugh, cry and shudder. The editors’ brief was to select the best, and there was a wealth to choose from. Join us in this celebration of community creativity. The collections features stories by Sarah Armstrong, Sarah Bates Kendrick, Annie Bell, Penny Benedetti, Helen Chambers, Tim Gardiner, Phil Hurst, Wendy James, Jonathan King, Toni Peers, Mary Pullen Deacon, Clare Shaw, Doug Smith, Alice Violett, and Katy Wimhurst.
