We are delighted to return to the loveliness of Greenbelt at the end of August 2013. We will have two evenings of 10x9 storytelling in the Literature Hub at the festival. If you want to tell a story (yay!) see the notes at the bottom of this post. Saturday 24th August, 9.30pm in the Literature Venue. Theme: Growing up.

Growing up - when we are young, we speak about it as a definite age, and when we reach that age, we wonder when it'll happen. As Greenbelt turns 40, we want to hear your true stories of the reality of growing up - what you thought it would be, when you decided you had grown up, when you decided you wouldn't. Tweet us on @tenx9 or email us on tenbynine [at] gmail[dot] com

We want to hear your real stories of love - love found, love forbidden, just love, brave love, equal love, unexpected love.
