#TheOtherStories

presents...

KEZ'S CHRISTMAS ADVENT CALENDAR!

We gathered 12 writers from the H&C community and let them dip their hands into our Secret Santa bucket. From the bucket each writer pulled out a word, and from that word, they were asked to write and narrate a very, very short story.

Today’s word was… toy.

And the story is Prezzie.

Written and narrated by Luke Kondor (https://www.lukekondor.com)

Edited by Karl Hughes (https://twitter.com/karlhughes)

With evil Christmas music by Duncan Muggleton (https://temporalrecordings.wordpress.com)

Along with a seasonal spin on the original The Other Stories theme by Thom Robson (https://www.thomrobsonmusic.com/).

Luke Kondor makes stuff, including Keith – a short film made in 7 days with no ideas, no money, and no camera, which went on to win the best low-budget short film at the London Short Film Festival; The Other Stories – a weekly short story podcast with over five million downloads and a Film/TV option; and El Marvo – a crowdfunded comic book about a Luchador wrestler in a post-apocalyptic future. You can follow more of Luke’s work at www.lukekondor.com

You can join our Bookclub, Movieclub, and writing exercises over at Facebook.com/groups/theotherstories.

T-shirts, mugs, posters, and comic books are available at www.gumroad.com/hawkandcleaver
