Join Letty Butler and Stephen Mellor (also known as Dave) for a game show that shines the spotlight on new and existing writers, via the medium of chatting, creative prompts and live writing challenges. We have two different guests every episode - novelists, poets, spoken word artists, script and screenwriters. You can also play along at home, so send us your work and it might just end up on the show!

episode 4: Episode 4 - Kipperlips & Christmas Parties (With Helen Mort & Joe Kriss)
Guests Helen Mort and Joe Kriss join hosts Letty Butler and Stephen Mellor in a Christmas podcast with a difference, for both writers and readers alike. In this episode, Helen, Joe, and Letty enter a seasonal world of lonely freelance Christmas parties, David Beckham, kipperlips and Sally Rooney chat up lines — oh, and Letty makes an innuendo about crackers and Stephen has to go for a lie down.
The prompts today were 200 words on a pre-prepared prompt of 'It happened at the Christmas party.' Three minutes to respond to either 'a pair of tweezers, a pencil, or a playing card,' and one minute to respond to 'the tree isn't real.'

Why not have a go at all these prompts yourself (but don’t forget to time yourself and don't cheat!) and send us your own responses at prompetyprompt@gmail.com or via twitter.com/prompetyprompt & instagram.com/prompetyprompt
