We Are Cardiff Press is proud to announce the launch of its first publication: an anthology of short stories and illustrations based around a fictional Cardiff bus route, called ‘The 42b’.

To celebrate, we're having a party in Porter's! AND IT'S GOING TO BE FREE! Although we also have donation tickets if you'd like to support a new, non-profit publisher.

But please register and get yourselves a ticket so we have a rough idea on numbers.

There will be drinks, music and entertainment. Twelve local writers and artists were involved in putting this beautiful book together - it's free entry, and this is being put on as a fringe event for Swn Festival.

Come celebrate local talent with us!

Pre orders for the book are now FINISHED (we hit our Indiegogo target - THANK YOU!), but you can buy a copy on the night of the party! After that, this book (and others) will be available on the first Saturday of every month at our container, at the Boneyard.

More information (including a special online chapter!) - see the Facebook event

More about the book:
Each story follows a different character as they get on and off the number 42b bus. It’s a series of warped kaleidoscopic reflections of the Cardiff that we live in today.

From wrestlers to adulterers, pensioners to murderers, the passengers on the 42b exist in a city of different realities, where everyday life brings the threat of grisly mutation, and citizens are bound by their occupations.

The book is the first publication for We Are Cardiff Press. All books are beautifully designed and made with high quality materials to ensure that each copy is a piece of art that you’ll want to keep forever. There will also be limited edition prints of the illustrations available.

We Are Cardiff Press is a non-profit small press, and all profits from sales will be put back into the organisation to fund new books, and run creative writing workshops.
