Every week we invite an established writer to read from and discuss their work. Recently we’ve hosted fiction writers May-Lan Tan, Niven Govinden and Megan Hunter, poets Stephen Collis, Cole Swensen and Peter Gizzi, memoirist Tom Rasmussen, and journalist and broadcaster Bidisha, among many others. In the summer term, we invite literary agents, publishers and other industry professionals to give an insight into the world of publishing and offer advice. These events are relaxed and informal, and all are welcome.

You can see some clips from recent online events on our YouTube channel. Look out for details of forthcoming events on the School of English News and events page.
