Spread the Word and Goldsmiths Present the Life Writing Prize
This special evening will celebrate the inaugural year of the Life Writing Prize. Judged by Goldsmiths' very own Blake Morrison with Katy Massey and Margaret Stead, the national Life Writing Prize for emerging life writers saw 700 entries in the Prize's first year.
Come along to hear readings from the longlisted writers, the announcement of this year's Prize results and have a celebratory drink afterwards.
The event will be BSL interpreted.

The Life Writing Prize is managed by Spread the Word with partnership support from Goldsmiths, University of London, the Royal Society of Literature and Arvon.
