Every year, the London Festival of Writing<\/strong> leaves us with that unmistakable post\u2011Festival glow \u2014 the kind that makes you want to write more and read more. So, in true Jericho fashion, we asked some of the team to share one small moment from the weekend that stuck with them. The brief was simple: one thing you learned, were reminded of, or will carry into your own writing practice.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the results? Pure gold. From the electric buzz of community, to the joy of seeing writers cheer each other on, to those rare moments that remind us exactly why stories matter…we think the team captured the heart of the Festival perfectly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, onto the good stuff\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophie Flynn<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At this year’s London Festival of Writing, I saw first-hand just how much excitement there still is from agents about discovering new writers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy, especially when you\u2019re deep in the querying trenches, to start seeing agents as gatekeepers, or to feel worn down by form rejections and silence. But spending the weekend surrounded by agents and publishers was such a good reminder that they actually just real people who genuinely love books and are actively looking for brilliant new talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday night, I watched a fantastic agent literally sprint across the hall to catch one of our Friday Night Live finalists before they left, because the agent didn\u2019t want to miss the chance to speak to them. A dream scenario for any writer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As writers, it\u2019s so easy to focus on the rejections that we forget this: agents want to fall in love with your work. They\u2019re hoping for that feeling just as much as you are. Some of them will even abandon their prosecco to sprint across a hall to tell you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becca Day<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The main thing that really struck me this year was how valuable people found the lunch and tea & coffee breaks. When we\u2019re planning the festival we\u2019re often wrapped up in thinking about which authors we should invite to speak and which agents we want to be offering one-to-ones, which of course is all super important, but it\u2019s often easy to miss what having breaks between all that excitement provides: the opportunity to chat with other writers. That\u2019s the big difference between the London Festival of Writing and a weekend of online workshops. While the latter is still brilliant for learning, it lacks that face to fact interaction. I\u2019ll never grow tired of seeing friendships form over coffee and pastries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rachel Davidson<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Always a big highlight of my year. It’s enormous fun, full of energy, enthusiasm and a particular shared excitement that bringing so many writers together in one place evokes. I invariably end the weekend exhausted, but it’s the satisfying kind from doing something worthwhile – days spent beneath a benevolent sun, tending important crops and preparing a good harvest kind!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everywhere I looked there were conversations, laughter, encouragement and smiles. Writers arriving hoping to learn, improve and make connections, and leaving having done all three. It’s an opportunity to meet many of my writing friends in person rather than through our emails, Zoom squares and Townhouse forums. Every year it is confirmed that writers are some of the most generous, thoughtful and interesting people you could hope to meet. I’m already looking forward to the next one.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imogen Love<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Every year at the Festival of Writing, I like to think that our community proves why writing should never only be a solitary pursuit. Although writing will always involve a lot of time in front of the computer, we see how the insight and support received from being around other writers really is invaluable. I’m always aware that for many attendees, this will be the one weekend a year where they can devote their entire waking hours to being a writer<\/em>, and I hope all take away that buzz of creativity, understanding, and community. I like seeing attendees gain the courage to put their hand up in a workshop and share something about their own writing practice that resonates with others, finally finding other people that ‘get’ their experiences as a writer. But my favourite moment is always Friday Night Live, where the finalists and shortlisted writers get wholehearted support and encouragement, and writers celebrate each other. It\u2019s a reminder that generously swapping ideas, experiences, and learnings makes us all better writers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emily Mitchell<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

One thing I was reminded of at the London Festival of Writing was the sheer support and atmosphere that comes from a good writing community. Conversations were buzzing and new friendships made throughout the weekend. It is such a lovely thing for us to witness as people return with the friends they made in previous years and continue to expand their circle. Community is critical, especially when it comes to writing, where the industry can be quite quiet and isolating at times. As always, my highlight of the festival was the Friday Night Live competition. It’s amazing to hear the finalists read their work live and they were so brave to share their work. I need all six of them to be published so I can find out what happens next. The gasp in the room at Denny’s reveal in the extract was exquisite and the type of moment that reminds you how electrifying stories can be. However, what I most love about FNL is how supportive the entire room is of these writer’s work and how much everyone is cheering one another on. It is a wonderful environment and always feels so special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tanya Lewis<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

One thing that really struck me at this year\u2019s London Festival of Writing was how grounding it is to meet the people behind the industry. The agents, the authors, the publishers\u2014 and realise they\u2019re not distant figures at all. They\u2019re real humans with stories, nerves, excitement, and the same love of books that brought all of us into the room in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Across the weekend, I found myself chatting to agents who were excited about discovering new voices, and authors who spoke openly about their own messy drafts, long waits, and unexpected breakthroughs. Hearing those stories (the honest, unpolished versions) was such a powerful reminder that no one in this industry is gliding effortlessly from success to success. Everyone starts from somewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It made the whole writing world feel kinder and far more accessible. And I left feeling reassured that the people we sometimes imagine as gatekeepers are, in reality, fellow book\u2011lovers rooting for writers and stories just like yours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Starkey<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There were a couple of highlights for me this year. First, it was such a privilege – and a real buzz! – to see how far last year’s Friday Night Live winner Kate Emilie has come in just 12 months. From competition winner to agented author with book deals in multiple countries, she’s travelled such a distance in a single year: proof that believing in yourself, and pushing onwards with your dream, really can pay off. You never know whether the next competition you enter will be the one you win, whether the next agent you query will be the one who picks you up, or whether the next publisher you submit to will jump at the chance to sign you. It’s a cliche, but it only takes one ‘yes’ to kickstart a career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, the atmosphere at this year’s festival was fantastically positive, too. I love that LFOW is an inclusive event where there’s joy and camaraderie  to be found at any age, whatever your chosen genre and regardless of where you come from. What an amazing thing it is – and what an honour – that writers travel from as far afield as Australia, New Zealand and the United States to be with us each year! The Festival is always a brilliant opportunity to connect, and reconnect, with other people who love stories as much as you do. This year, I was lucky enough to see an old university friend there after we lost touch twenty years ago. How’s that for a plot twist? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
