We wanted to see the end of another challenging year out on a high with another winter publication! And for 2021 year, we chose the theme of ‘freedom?’ (And no, the question mark isn’t a typo!)
We invited our talented community to dive deep into the concept of what freedom is to them, and to see what the word itself inspired. Entrants could respond to the prompt in any way they saw fit; with poems about emancipation, short stories about first stabs at independence, limericks about liberty, monologues mourning the loss of summer holidays… whatever came to mind using ‘freedom?’ as a prompt.
The resulting pamphlet is an inspirational collection of fourteen personal interpretations, spanning across the mediums of fiction, poetry, and memoir.
The ‘Freedom’ pamphlet is available as a printed (limited edition) and digital pamphlet
