Our New Writing anthology is a showcase of work by both emerging and established authors from the UK and Commonwealth. Each volume introduces some of the best new writing in prose, poetry, fiction and non-fiction to wide audiences in the UK and overseas. New Writing’s roll of honour includes Malcolm Bradbury, A.S. Byatt, Doris Lessing and Ben Okri. What’s more, New Writing remains one of the few opportunities in the UK for unknown writers to be published by leading fiction publishers. Celebrating a dozen years of anthology publishing, we’ve created a website featuring extracts from New Writing 12 for readers and teachers, which explores new writing thematically.

New Writing 14 Launch

The new edition of New Writing will be launched on 8 June 2006. New Writing 14 is edited by Lavinia Greenlaw and Helon Habila and published by Granta. The anthology will be published in September 2006.
