Platform Conference for Black and Asian writers
Sat 4 Mar 2023 to Sun 5 Mar 2023
A weekend of talks and workshops for Black and Asian writers taking you from draft to publication. Keynote: Kasim Ali.

Come along to our Zoom conference which aims to support and encourage early-career writers by offering advice and inspiration. Hear from first-time writers on their experiences of completing their manuscript and getting published, and from industry experts on the role they play in the publication process.

We will also be joined by a host of changemakers who are committed to amplifying Black and Asian voices.

Keynote: Kasim Ali works as an editor. He was longlisted for the B4ME Short Story Prize (hosted by his now UK publisher Fourth Estate), and Good Intentions was shortlisted for the Mo Siewcherran Prize. He's also had a short story published in The Good Journal.

Programmed by Farhana Shaikh and generously supported by ALCS.
