Submission Guidelines:

In the first instance please submit work to our forum from where we'll choose at least one of the stories featured on the site. The Tell Tales format is stories of 2500 words or less

Well we've learned that it's a difficult job to keep this going, but at least we've put it out 3 times this year and we intend to double that next year. Thank you all for your support right through the year. For this, the last issue at the last minute of this year, we have stories from an American Were-Writer in London and a lady from the same town as Dick Whittington who has managed to find the feline descendant of the famous cat and get the real story translated. Both, rather festive stories if you ask us!

Anyway, we have begun work on a new anthology - Tell Tales III - and we encourage writers to find the submission details via our forum and send work in. Have a lovely holiday.

Thank you,
The Editors

Author Bios:

Ursula Wills-Jones grew up in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Despite a double barrelled surname, she is not even remotely posh. She now lives in Bristol, where she can often be found with her laptop in a corner of the Boston Tea Party. She likes fairy tales, myths, ghost stories, and anything else which is normally considered too frightening for adults.

We're chasing Scott's bio!

Tell Tales is an initiative started by Courttia Newland and Nii Ayikwei Parkes, which now publishes an annual anthology on New Fiction and features writers at several literary events around the world. This e-zine is edited by rotating guest editors. Copyright remains with the authors.
