Write to Publish

Write to Publish

sub titleDeveloping publishing skills alongside industry professionals
partners(s)Arts Council
description

QueenSpark is halfway through its Arts Council funded Write to Publish project. This offers training, guidance and support in how books and web publications are made from inception to finished product, including commission and research, writing, editing and design, sales and distribution.

The project is structured so that participants - Write to Publish course 'graduates' and volunteers - can get involved in:
a) working on future QueenSpark publications (the first of which produced Back Row Brighton, the next of which focuses on theatre-going in Brighton & Hove)
b) get help in publishing their own material, or help others to do the same
c) organising and staging of small-scale events that will celebrate their involvement in the project and give them first hand experience of literary event management.

If you would like further information, contact John Riches on 01273 571710 or send your e-mail details to John for inclusion on the QueenSpark e-mail list for regular updates on programme activities.

On The Deckchair, our literary website for Brighton and Hove, you can look up books about Brighton, novels set in Brighton, books by Brighton authors and much more. You can also make your own contribution on the website or get more involved by contacting Sarah Hutchings.

Depending on the projects we are engaged in at any given time, QueenSpark offers volunteer and training opportunities in many areas of our work. We are also committed to sharing the processes that inform what we do with others engaged in community publishing and history work. To find out about other volunteer activities, contact John Riches.
