Amazing first Lit! 'When is the next one?' you ask... 20th Nov!

-->



There is no doubt about it, the first Lit was a resounding success! The open mic spanned over two hours and an audience of nearly fifty people was way beyond expectations!  A huge thank you and 'Hooray!' to all who came and participated!!  So many different voices, forms and styles were heard; poetry (in English and French), novel excerpts, short stories, and importantly, the open mic was graced by both seasoned pros and first time performers.

The reading by Lit's first featured guest, poet, Kenny Knight, was enjoyed by all and if you couldn't make it or want to find out more about him and his work, check out his website! http://www.kennyknight.co.uk/
 
The next Lit will be held on Tuesday 20th of November at 7:30 at The Plymouth Social Club (on Tavistock Place, PL4 8AX). There will be a small entry fee of  £ 1 to help cover costs of putting on the night.   As before, there will be an open mic for POETRY, PROSE & PERFORMANCE, so feel free to think outside the box.  Time slots will be approximately 7 mins.

Lit is also delighted to announce that the featured guest for the next event is Tom Vowler!  Tom is the author of the award winning short story collection The Method and the forthcoming novel What Lies Within.  Find out more about him and his work and get excited for his reading by visiting his website. http://www.tomvowler.co.uk/index.html

So there you have it, another amazing Tuesday evening is only just over a month away!  Don't be shy and book your open mic slot ASAP as they will go quickly!  See you there!
