Newcastle Writing Conference

Full description

New Writing North’s Newcastle Writing Conference is back!

The writing conference is an event for writers at all stages of their careers. It aims to demystify the world of publishing and supports you to connect with peers and industry experts. Across one day, the conference offers a programme of panels, breakout sessions and practical workshops. Writers choose their own bespoke journey throughout the day, whether you’re interested in avoiding memoir mistakes, creating compelling characters in your children’s novel or getting a guide to independent publishing.

Making connections is just as important as a fantastic programme of events. We encourage attendees to mingle over complimentary tea and coffee, visit our pop-up book stall from Forum Books, and meet other writers during the networking time at the end of the day. You can also apply for an industry one-to-one with a range of agents, editors and professional writers.

If you can’t join us in person, you can still be part of Newcastle Writing Conference. We’ll be live-streaming our three main events and three breakout sessions throughout the day.
