October Writing Day




Dear poet, 

Just to let you that there will be a Writing Day this Saturday.
An early one this month because it's part of the Off the Shelf festival.

10.15-4pm, morning at the Premier Inn, corner of Angel Street and Bank Street; and afternoon (half the group) at Bank Street.   

Please bring a poem (and ten copies) for the afternoon workshop – or better still write one up to discuss from the morning session. 

Please phone 0114 3463037 or email if you need more details. 

It’s not essential, but would be appreciated if you could let us know if you’re planning to attend. 

Best wishes, 
Peter & Ann



p.s. We've got a whopping seven new titles out this month! See our website to read a poem from each of them.

Michael Schmidt's Collected Poems
John Lyons' No Apples in Eden
Mike Di Placido's Theatre of Dreams

The overall winner of the 2008 Book & Pamphlet Competition –
