What we do

Helping multilingual authors since 2022

01

Beginner support

Are you thinking of writing a book? At our writers’ meet-ups we share samples of our texts and discuss our writing journeys. In 2024 we are also planning “silent” workshops to help people fit writing into their busy schedules.

03

LGMW Magazine

We publish multilingual authors in our online magazine. Our recent topics included “Pain” and “An Emigrant’s Summer”. If you are interested in submitting your work, please email londonwritersgroup101@gmail.com

02

Self-publishing advice

You can publish your book independently, via Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, Lulu.com and other platforms. Or you can print your book at a local printing house. You can find out more about these options on our Forum. Once you publish your book, we will help you promote it – check out our membership plans.

04

Multilingual Support

We believe that thinking in more than one language enriches our writing, making it more original. Come to our meet-ups to meet fellow multilinguals, editors and translators!

We currently accept submissions in English, Italian, Russian, and Ukrainian. We will also consider texts in other languages. If your text needs editing, we will help you find an editor.
