Words of Colour Productions is a new community enterprise established to nurture, train and advise the next generation of writers and journalists particularly from black and minority ethnic communities and marginalised groups.
We aim to engage and inspire in a number of ways from one to one coaching, workshops, online support and motivational and career-focused events. One example is our ‘Get Started’ writing programme with its tailored workshops, careers seminars and online support (see Projects).
In our quest to be interactive we have developed Live Space. Here you’ll find Book Reviews, a Forum for your news and views, Interviews and Guest Spot to showcase the best of your poems, short stories and articles.
If there is a project or organisation you think we’ve missed in Links, email us at info@wordsofcolour.co.uk
