MILFORD WORKSHOPPING CONFERENCE
CRITIQUE WEEK IN SEPTEMBER

Full cost £750 for Bed, breakfast and evening meal
Each year fifteen published writers of speculative fiction get together for one special week. We critique work, discuss ideas and generally connect with other like-minded writers. Suitable for both writers who might only have sold one short story, and writers who can only dimly recall what a rejection slip looks like. We're a friendly bunch. Come and join us

We filled the rooms we initially booked, but it's possible to extend our booking. Please enquire.
Time to write in the pin-drop quiet library, at the desk in your room, in the comfy common room, or outside in the fresh air (we hope). Take meals and socialise with other writers. Lunches are available in Gladstones own cafe.

BURSARY INFO for
WRITERS of COLOUR
Bursary applications are open NOW and close on 28th February 2024.
Each bursary fully funds a place (with bed, breakfast and evening meals) for the Milford Conference in September
The bursary scheme is intended as an encouragement, not a quota. We operate an equal opportunities policy so all SF/F writers who are 'Milford qualified' are welcome to apply for paid Conference places.
