  • Novel London Readings

    at The Riverside Studios

    2025

    Book Tickets To The Live Readings
  •  

    Novel London began in 2015 as a series of monthly readings held in bookshops, offering writers the opportunity to share their work in an intimate and supportive environment. Over time, it evolved into an international literary festival and competition.

    To date, the competitions attracted hundreds of entries, showcasing the talent of both emerging and established writers. What started as a local event has grown into a significant platform, providing participants with opportunities to gain visibility, secure literary agent representation, and refine their manuscripts through mentoring programs.

    To mark ten years, we are returning to our roots and the stage for our Novel London Readings!

    NOVEL LONDON READINGS ARE BACK!

    Novel London Readings is a monthly reading night for novelists at Riverside Studios, open to anyone with a novel – published, unpublished, or in progress - who’d like to share their work with a live audience.

    What to Expect:

    • 10-Minute Reading Slots: Each novelist will have up to 10 minutes to read an excerpt from their novel, including time to introduce themselves and give background on their work.

    • Audience Feedback: The audience will vote on the authors they’d like to hear more from, creating an interactive and encouraging environment.

    • Relaxed Setting: Drinks are available at the bar (not included in ticket price), making it a comfortable space to socialise with fellow writers and listeners.

    How to Participate:

    • Sign Up in Advance: Email your opening chapter, blurb and a short bio (that you may want to use as an introduction on the night) to novellondon@gmail.com Please include your number so we can contact you.
