ABOUT #125STORIES
(1) #125Stories, your chance to join in with the Agatha Christie 125th Anniversary celebrations, was ins-
(2) pired by the discovery, in the Agatha Christie Archive, of a collection of very personal letters written to Agatha
(3) Christie throughout the 20th century from fans around the world. Some of these letters are witty and amusing,
(4) while others reveal intimate details of daily lives. Others still provide the modern day reader with an insight into
(5) the political situation of post-war Europe, of the Iron Curtain, and of how Christie’s books provided escapism for
(6) those in the most desperate of conditions.
(7) These letter writers took the time to let Agatha Christie know how important she was in their own lives –
(8) and now you too can share your stories of how the world’s most famous crime writer changed your life.
(9) What story should you share?
(10) Maybe you acted in a play once, and something went wrong on stage…
(11) Perhaps you were inspired to write after reading her novels…Have you ever written a screen play after
(12) watching Poirot on tv?…
(13) Or maybe Agatha Christie herself has been your inspiration – as a traveller, a surfer, an archaeologist, a
(14) musician, a wife, mother, daughter…
(15) Whatever it is, we want to know.
(16) And if you tell us your story, you’ll be in with the chance of being selected to have it exhibited in Septem-
(17) ber at the International Agatha Christie Festival in Torquay, England, as one of 125 Stories.
(18) We’ll be running #125Stories for the whole of 2015 – so if you are not selected for the exhibition but want
(19) to share your experiences of the September birthday celebrations and the rest of the year with us, then you’ll
(20) be able to right up until Christmas.
(21) Take the time to read others’ stories too – you never know what you might uncover.
