York Festival of Writing


  • University of York Heslington, York YO10 5DD (map)

Since 2010, over three hundred writers travelled to York, England, every year, to attend the Festival of Writing. After a two-year break, Jericho Writers are now back at York, and bigger than ever. Join us the first weekend of September 2022 for an action-packed three days featuring 7-mini courses and 70+ workshops covering everything we know about writing, editing, publishing and more. As everything takes place on a single site, there are innumerable opportunities to network, make new friends, socialise with old ones, browse the book stall, listen to inspiring keynote speeches and generally immerse yourself.

Emma will be giving workshops on Ten Things About Being Published, and Reading Like a Writer.

  • 2 nights in a single en-suite room on-site at the University of York
