Pen Pal Tales: Book Two - Winter Edition
Nine writers. One community. Stories shared from the heart.
Pen Pal Tales: Book Two - Winter Edition brings together nine Leicester-based writers whose voices span fiction, memoir, poetry, and reflection. Each piece captures the spirit of winter - introspection, humour, community, and hope - blending lived experience with imagination.
Written by members of Pen Pals Publishing, this second anthology builds on the success of Book One, showing how storytelling can connect people through honesty, creativity, and shared purpose.
About Pen Pals Publishing
Pen Pals Publishing is a grassroots collective of nine writers from Leicester who met through a creative writing class and chose to publish together - learning every step of the process from editing to design. The group is inclusive of genders and ages, reflecting a rich tapestry of diverse voices and perspectives. All authors contribute to the publishing process, hence 'Pen Pals Publishing'.
Our mission is to make books that are accessible, affordable, and authentic - created by writers and for readers who value real voices over gatekeepers. Thanks to Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, we're able to produce professional-quality books without upfront costs, keeping our anthologies inclusive and sustainable.
We're developing new funding and printing opportunities to continue offering free author copies, community workshops, and creative projects that blend storytelling, inclusion, and technology - keeping the Pen Pals spirit alive and growing.

Created by nine Leicester writers who publish collaboratively, Pen Pal Tales: Book Two - Winter Edition proves that community publishing can open doors for every voice to be heard.
