Short story Tweetathon continues to be a success


Launching on the14th September 2011, The Society of Authors Short Story Tweetathon is a first-time collaboration between tweeters and top authors to write a number of short stories in five tweets.

The Tweetathon commenced on the 14th September at 11am on #WriterWednesday. One story each week will be written for five consecutive weeks, with a new line tweeted every hour on the hour between 11am and 4pm. A leading author will tweet a first line, and tweeters following the Society of Authors (SoA) are invited to complete the next four sentences. Tweets will be curated and each winning story will be published on the SoA website.

The Short Story Tweetathon is part of the SoA's short story in campaign in response to BBC R4's short story cuts.
