About the Stockholm Writers Festival

The Stockholm Writers Festival was founded in 2017 by a group of English-speaking writers living and working in Stockholm. It’s focused on developing the skills and business knowledge that writers need to navigate the publishing world, while fostering an ever-expanding community of international writers.

I know the resulting book will be worth it, but for right now, the process is hard.
