EWFdigital

Bringing the festival to a national and global audience, EWFdigital is the Emerging Writers’ Festival online, a space that enables writers to discuss how their words work on the web.

EWFdigital: Stories in your stream
28 May – 1 June

Find your audience and grow your digital community. No matter where you place your words online, EWFdigital is for you. Our dedicated digital festival portal presents a unique program including an interactive keynote address, panels, conversations, mentoring, curated content and networking opportunities.

EWFdigital is not bound by physical space, and the discussion focuses on the realm of digital writing. We bring emerging, edgy and energetic digital thinkers and writers from around the globe directly to your screen. Collaborative and dynamic, EWFdigital will be on your mobile, on your computer, on your tablet – and it happily blurs the boundaries between writer, audience, creator and consumer.

Explore EWFdigital to find – and create – stories in your stream.
