Call for Next Northern Lines event

Ever wanted to read your work? Well, now is the time. There are 20 slots to fill. Those selected will go into an anthology for the night. But even if you don’t win a slot, we will try our best to put all our contributors into the anthology anyway. (This is a one-off opportunity.)

There will be folk music and a glass of wine available in the interval.

We welcome poems: max 30 lines; extracts from prose work (400 words); and script (that can be condensed into three pages); also pictures/visuals that enhance the text. Contributions should be your own unpublished work.

Email no more than 3 poems or a couple of pieces of prose, and perhaps a couple of lines about yourself. Avoid formatting. Single space and put your name at the end of each poem. Send as an attachment or in the body of the email.

We also need ‘listeners.’ Come along. Listening to poetry is as much of a creative act as writing it. We need your contribution, too!


Every contribution will be acknowledged. Deadline 20 Oct 10

Entry: Free

Time: 6:30pm
