The MinK Anthologies
Publishing the best of local writing
Since 2019, Milton Keynes Literary Festival has been running Creative Writing Competitions for local and regional writers, and publishing the winning, highly commended and selected entries in a series of anthologies called MinK.
[If a cryptic crossword compiler were giving a clue to the title, they might suggest 'In Buckinghamshire new town, initially (4)]
We're delighted not only to have published such excellent writing, but to have seen so many of the selected pieces come from people of all ages who have not been selected for publication previously. (Those pondering submitting might like also to know that all submissions are judged blind: selectors are never aware of the identities of any of the writers until selections have been finalised.)
Each of the main MinK anthologies are available both in printed form or as a e-book: our seasonally themed Dreams for... anthologies are available only as e-books.
