Open Readings & Publishing Q&A with Naya Antonio

Join London-based author and poet Naya Antonio for an evening celebrating storytelling, emerging voices, and the journey to publication. This is a welcoming space for unpublished writers to share their work, connect with fellow creatives, and gain insight into the realities of becoming a published author.

The evening will start with open readings, inviting writers to share a short extract of their work in a supportive and encouraging environment. Whether you write fiction, poetry, memoir, spoken word, or creative non-fiction, this is an opportunity to have your voice heard and celebrate the power of storytelling.

The second half is an informal Q&A with Naya Antonio, who will share her experiences as a published author and discuss the writing and publishing journey. Together, you'll explore topics such as developing your craft, finding confidence in your work, navigating the publishing industry, and building a sustainable creative practice. Whether you come to read, listen, or simply be inspired, you'll be welcomed into an evening of conversation, creativity, and community.
