Quill Kickers is a collaborative storytelling platform where your ideas drive the narrative.
The community contribute to original stories, published in weekly instalments, by suggesting what happens next.
Our platform reflects the zeitgeist through magical realism and explores the most urgent themes of our time - youth mental health, consent, social media and equality. Each story will be three chapters long.
Charles Dickens brought us the first ever serialised storytelling format with The Pickwick Papers in 1836.
Quill Kickers is booting this popular format into the 21st century.
Pioneers of social change through the pen.
Be part of the narrative.
How does it work?
STEP 1
Wednesday. Visit Quill Kickers's socials (Instagram, TikTok, Threads). There will be a question for you. Share your ideas and creative thoughts in the comments. We will weave the most thought-provoking ideas into chapter one.
STEP 2
Tuesday. Chapter one will be posted on QuillKickers.com. It will end on a cliff hanger.
STEP 3
Wednesday. The cliff hanger will be posed as a question on Quill Kickers's socials. Respond in the comments and the cycle starts again to create the next chapter, and repeats once more for the third and final chapter.
