WORD SPACE

Literature Works’ annual talent development programme, nurturing and connecting emerging writing talent from around the South West region

Word Space is delivered online, combining mentoring, workshops, regular sessions with industry professionals and an online space to support each other as a group of writers. 

An open submissions process runs throughout the months of December and January and the twelve-month programme begins in April.

Word Space aims to be inclusive and supportive of underrepresented voices. The programme fee is significantly subsidised by Literature Works, with concessions and a limited pot of further bursary support also available.

We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Amazon UK Literary Partnership for Word Space.
