Hi! Welcome to The Shorter the Better, the Short Story Reading Club.

On Monday, 8 December 2025, at eight o’clock in the evening London time, 20:00 GMT we will be discussing the short story The Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter.

Here you have a link to the short story:

Those who have managed to get a place in the meetup will see the link on the right, under the Online Event headline. We are using Google Meet these days, and thank Chet for that, as he’s providing the link!

If you attend, please read the short story beforehand and be ready to join the conversation. Please, take this seriously: IF YOU HAVEN’T READ THE TEXT OR DON’T WANT TO CONTRIBUTE AN OPINION, please do not show up. Also, any problem on the day of the meeting to log in, please leave a message in the comment section. I usually check if anybody is having any issues.

If for any reason you cannot attend the meeting, please remember to change your RSVP as soon you realise you won’t be able to attend. That will give time to the following person in the waiting list to read the short story and organize their day.

I hope we all will enjoy this short story and the discussion!

Kind regards,

Rosaura
