Free and informal - followed by an open mic session.
The independent presses are the first step to literary stardom for many novelists - for writers of short fiction and poetry they are the only game in town. To find out what editors are looking for and how to submit, come along to an informal evening with three of the most influential editors in the region: Bluemoose Books, Comma Press and Dog Horn Publishing. Chaired by
Mslexia's editor Debbie Taylor.
Afterwards, we're hosting a
Mslexia Spotlight open-mic. Bring along your own work - a single poem or up to 700 words of prose - or simply stay on to see what other writers have been up to. The open-mic session will commence with readings from SI Leeds Literary Prize nominees.
Admission free.
