The Rising Line is here…

Exciting news! As an editor, it really doesn’t get better than this…

It’s been a huge honour to edit The Rising Line, an anthology of poetry and short fiction by 73 young and emerging writers, featuring 59 poems and 18 short stories. Even though this is the eighth anthology of this quality and range I’ve edited, I find myself blown away every time by the range of voices, subject matter, and the many ways young and emerging writers are making sense of the world through their work.

And what’s more, The Rising Line is now available to buy! You can purchase it online here, and in selected independent bookshops including All Good Stuff and Juno Books in Sheffield.

If you’re curious about what the next generation of writers is up to, I’d really urge you to get hold of a copy. It also helps us more than you know, as a small, grassroots organisation, to keep developing and supporting young voices to flourish.
