Introducing the online hub, BWLF says: “Cancellations of literary festivals are going to hit authors, publishers and booksellers hard with lost earnings and lost sales. One way we can help our favourite writers during this crisis is to share, celebrate and buy their work, which is why we have launched our online festival “hub”.

“We’ll be sharing links from our writers, including to their books, their journalism, their talks and podcasts… So sit back, imagine yourself in the Watershed, and discover our amazing writers!”

There is a wealth of material available via the hub, from writers including Hadley Freeman, Coco Khan, Isabel Hardman, Lia Leendertz and Bidisha, plus links to poetry performances from several poets including Bristol’s Shagufta K Iqbal and Malaika Kegode.
