Despite the fact that we’re giving you less than 12 hours notice of this event, it should be noted that this is one not to be missed.

The lovely folk at Comma Press are celebrating the release of their latest new writing anthology Brace with a selection of readings at Manchester’s Cornerhouse. The readings come from Transmission contributors Chris Killen and Annie Clarkson in addition to acclaimed short story writer Guy Ware.

The readings start at 7pm and admission is £3.50/£2.50(cons). This is a thoroughly good deal as the admission price is redeemable against the purchase of the anthology itself.

Intriguingly the readings will be preceded by a selection of short films. These screenings are adaptations of stories and poems commissioned by Comma Film and you can read more about them here.
