wordsinhere goes online

There is a lot we could say about this but the site speaks for itself. Thanks to the fantastic work of Daniel Baars and others, wordsinhere has a presence in the online community. Visit www.wordsinhere.com for detailed information on wordsinhere's projects, an updated literary calendar for events in and around The Netherlands, and to find out how you can get involved.

The Open Stanza finds space

The performance night of wordsinhere has found a space to hold its monthly gathering! Starting Friday, 20 December, The Open Stanza will be held one Friday a month at Volta, a center for young people in the Westerpark neighborhood. Tucked inconspicuously behind the Haarlemmerport, Volta is ideal for this literary evening dedicated to linking artist and audience through the word on stage. Put the 20th of December in your calendars - we'll see you there!

We're looking for writing that breaks a few barriers, that accesses something new, that is involved and unexpected. See our submission guidelines online for further details. You can submit electronically to submissions@wordsinhere.com.
