Lots of us are Writing Lands
October! Not long now before a bunch of us write all day to produce stories for the Green Ink charity anthology ‘Pleasant Lands’. I’ll just put in the official stuff here:
Welcome to Green Ink Sponsored Write 2024!
Reflecting Macmillan’s mission of quality of life, writers are sponsored for their time, not their word-count. A world-exclusive anthology of material created in this Sponsored Write will be emailed to everyone who donates on this page before the writing day ends (19 Oct 2024).
Your anthology will arrive in your inbox 48 hours after it’s written (21 Oct 2024).
Team 2024 is: Isabella Barbieri, Stephanie Bisby, Dan Coxon, Alex Davis, Kayleigh Dobbs, Sarah Dodd, Kim Fleet, John-Paul Flintoff, Emily Inkpen, Marianne Izen, Penny Jones, Rachel Knightley, Nic Lamont, Laura Mauro, Lisa Morton, Katharine Orton, Kenny Reid, Jennifer Steil, Vanessa Thompsett, Steve Toase, Stacey Michelle Warner and Aliya Whiteley. Anthology design will be by Steve J. Shaw of Black Shuck Books (my cover image is temporary until then!).
Writing begins at 10.30am and ends at 5.30pm (with a break for lunch!). The writers then have 24 hours to edit their work and email it to Writers’ Gym HQ to be turned into an anthology for our sponsors.
I have half an idea for this already, and I’m really looking forward to getting started – and of creating a small part of an anthology with such a talented group of fellow writers.
Please do sponsor us if you can, and support a cause that is incredibly helpful for so many of us. Here’s the link.
