NAWGfest 2020 ONLINE!
Chris Huck • 1 August 2020
Register now for our weekend of activities
Hello Everyone,
I'm really pleased to tell you that we have put together a programme of online events as a substitute for what would have been the 2020 NAWGfest weekend.
Over the period from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th September
all our members are cordially invited to take part in a number of activities, and I hope you find them both stimulating and enjoyable. If you look at the timetable being sent in the e-newsletter you'll see there are three workshops, an open mic session, two '24-hour flash' competitions in poetry and fiction, a quiz and more. We haven't forgotten the presentation of the awards, so there'll be an online ceremony too. I do hope you can join us - I look forward to 'seeing' you there ! The timetable is on the
NAWGfest 2020 online page
of the website.
(Please remember you must
register first by sending an email here-
some activities have limited places! )
Best Wishes & hope you can join us !
Chris Huck, Chairman
