Words by the Water Literature Festival

Theatre by the Lake in Keswick, Cumbria is the centre for this exciting literature festival organised by Ways With Words. For 10 days (from 2 – 11 March 2012) writers and readers get together to share the pleasure of books, words and ideas.

Theatre by the Lake, sited right on the edge of Derwentwater, is a striking venue for a full programme of literary events. There are talks, lectures, discussions, workshops, book launches and special exhibitions.

The programme for Words by the Water will be available to download from the Ways With Words website in December 2011.

The winning poems for the 2011 Words by the Water / Mirehouse Poetry Prize can be read on the Mirehouse website.
