[close] Butser Storytelling Club is a brand new club, meeting on the fourth Wednesday of the month, 7pm-9pm, in the unique setting of Butser Ancient Farm, Chalton, Hampshire. It's a club for all those interested in story and the oral storytelling tradition. Join us as we gather around the fire in the Saxon house at Butser to recreate the mead halls of old and tell stories or just listen. Wonder stories, fairy tales, legends, myths or anecdotes, are all encouraged. In the true tradition of oral storytelling, you are invited to prepare a story based on the month’s theme and to tell it rather than read it, on the night. It doesn’t have to be long: 3-10 minutes. Not sure what traditional storytelling is? Come along and find out. Hosted by DD Storyteller, cake and mead will be served but you’re welcome to bring a flask of your own hot drink. Parking is available. For darker evenings it is advised you bring a torch to light your way. Entrance is by the side gate as the shop will be closed. Please contact me via my profile to let us know you are coming so that we can look out for you and book your place around the fire. Recommended age 12+

Often overlooked and brushed aside, we're taking the time to delve into the lady vaults and find some exciting treasures! These are books from at least 15 years ago (2004 or earlier). Each month we read one book from The Lady Vaults and chat about it, learn about the author and their life and works in SFF. The Lady Vaults 100% includes all women, femmes, trans, non-binary and queer identities that care to identify themselves as female/femme in whatever way.

Founded in January 2015, this groups was initially designed as a way for me to support indie authors by reading their work and featuring them on my website.
