Come to the launch of MYTHS #5: REVOLUTION!

Myths of the Near Future magazine is at University of Worcester on Saturday 1st March 2014 from 5pm – 6.30pm, launching in association with Writing West Midlands’ Student Writer Toolkit.MYTHS HOLDING IMAGE 2

There’ll be readings from lots of young writers! Come at 1pm for the whole event (don’t forget to book first) or 5pm for the Myths launch (free entry to all). If you are a young writer and want to book a reading slot then there’s still time – just email intern@writingwestmidlands.org with your name and piece.

Earlier this year we asked 16-25 year old poets, fiction writers, essayists and reviewers for submissions on the theme of REVOLUTION – and we were blown away by the responses. We whittled submissions down to 20 incredibly diverse pieces, looking at revolutions in politics, technology, love and war in completely unique ways.
