The Creative Cafe Project and Cafe Lit

The Creative Café Project and CafeLit

One of the greatest pleasures in my working life is selecting the story for the CaféLit blog . Then there is the annual pleasure of putting a book together of the best stories of each year. For the past few years we’ve involved readers and writers in the section for this.

CaféLit, with its short fiction and flash fiction, supports the Creative Café Project which is all about putting creative practitioners in touch with their audiences and readers in a café setting and about getting the general public involved in creative activities. 

This is so much a part of our active city life which I hope we can return to soon.  In the meantime we can read CaféLit online and the Best of  books are available as e-books or in paperback.

The Best of CafeLit 7 is now out!

We asked readers to vote for their favourite storeis published on the CafeLit web site in 2017.  We awarded five points for number one choices, four for number two and so on. 

The following stories received votes and are listed in the order of which ones received the most votes.

Authors were not allowed to vote for their own stories but we didn't mind if their friends did.

It's quite a tall order, anyway, to ask people to read all the storeis published in oen year but a few did and these are the results.

Next year, for The Best of CaféLit 8, we'll  ask those who appear in this volume to vote.   

Each story in this little volume is the right length and quality for enjoying as you sip the assigned drink in your favourite Creative Café. You need never feel alone again in a café. So what's the mood today? Espresso? Earl Grey tea? Hot chocolate with marshmallows? You'll find most drinks in our drinks index.
