Turning our hand to storytelling

SAPC World Book Day
St Austell Printing Company - we turn our hand to story telling to celebrate World Book day, with the help of Cornwall's creative industries.

To celebrate World Book Day we’re looking to write and print our very own book… with the help of the hive mind of Cornwall’s creative industries.

We’ve approached a few of our clients, ones we work closely with, to channel their creativity into storytelling.

The task is to write a section of narrative accompanied by an image or illustration, in 140 characters or less, given only the last 5 words of the previous sentence.

We’ll then put all the pieces of narrative together to (hopefully) form a story and compile it into a book. We’ll document the making of the book, following its progress as it travels through our factory, to show the printing process involved.

We launched the challenge this Thursday on World Book Day when we started by writing the first sentence and passing it on.

We’ll let you know how we get it on…
