The short story is having a renaissance. How do you write a perfect short story? How much is unconscious inspiration? How much hard work? Where do you start and how do you know when it’s finished? Two brilliant authors, Gurnaik Johal (winner of the Galley Beggar Short Story Prize 2022) and Jen Calleja (shortlisted for the Booker International Prize 2019) read from their stories and discuss their writing of them with Tom Conaghan, publisher of Scratch Books.
