writerly happenings
A FEW exciting things happened last week.
Even if you can't make our live events (Independent Publishing Fair, exhibition, workshops / panels, my pet project Lit Hop and MORE), do check out our digital and children's streams.
Oh, and everything is FREE.
2. The editor-in-chief of a publication I'm keen to write for asked if I'd like to meet for coffee.
3. I was short-listed for a Feminartsy Writing Residency. While I wasn't ultimately successful, it means a lot to me have the support of an editor I greatly admire and respect.
My piece was republished in Writers Bloc two weeks ago with the following editor's note:
'Biting My Tongue' is a brave piece that addresses the issue of consent and sexual assault in an honest and moving way. The piece resonated widely with our audience, and I think that speaks to what we want to achieve with Feminartsy – those moments of connection that spark some deeper thought on the issue at hand.
