On July 2, 2025 we celebrated the launch of Shadows on the Stage, a collection of genre short stories and poetry that celebrates the theme of performance.
Located at The Voodoo Rooms in Edinburgh, we had live readings from a number of the featured writers, as well as video readings from our writers based outside the UK. See some of the images from the event below.
Stay tuned for announcements about future readings from this anthology.
It is currently available online at IngramSpark and Waterstones. You may also find at Barnes & Noble or on Amazon if you are US or Canada based.
