My name is Adam Holton. I am an author and public typist. For the last two years, I have been travelling the island improvising stories on a typewriter for people.

Through a lovely series of coincidences, I have made a base for myself at Cardiff Market. I’ll be typing stories in Stall 30 until Christmas.

Opening hours are Monday – Thursday and Saturday 12pm – 5pm.

Each story is unique, inspired by the three random words and the character name people give me to play with. The story is typed while you wait and takes roughly 5 minutes. Perfect as gifts for children, adults, friends, family or yourself. It’s also a great example of how to break writer’s block.

Stories are Pay What You Feel – as a guide, people tend to pay between £5 and £15, but less or more is also fine.

From November onwards, I will also be offering a ‘Typewriter for Hire’ service. Two typewriters will be available in the stall between 4pm – 5pm so people can type their own messages, poems or stories. Typewriters can be hired in situ for a maximum of 10 minutes at a cost of £1 for 2 minutes (including paper, ink and envelope).
