Poet Linda France at Chesters Walled Garden (see story below)
 

Welcome to New Writing North’s virtual ‘home from home’. If you are a writer or are interested in literature events and activities and live in the north east of England then you’ve found a great regional resource.

Our site has two purposes. Firstly, it is the place where you can read about who we are, what we do and how we do it. From downloading our annual reports and browsing our project archive to checking out the books and CDs that we have for sale, it’s all here. The site is also bursting at the seams with information and advice for writers, including advice on agents and the publishing process, writing guides, an archive of our fortnightly e-newsletters, information on awards schemes, mentoring and career development. For more information, see the About Us section.
