PEN Promotes is open for submissions

English PEN is delighted to announce that the latest season of PEN Promotes is now open for submissions. PEN Promotes helps UK publishers to promote books in translation through funded tours for authors and translators. The grant is part of English PEN’s Writers in Translation programme, established in 2005 and supported by Bloomberg and Arts Council England to champion the best literature from around the world. The deadline for PEN Promotes applications is Monday 1st February 2016. Please see the PEN Promotes web page for further information and to apply.

The European Literature Network was created with the mission of championing great writing from Europe in the UK – and doing it together. Open to writers, translators, publishers, agents, booksellers, festival directors, arts managers and journalists, ELNet is a free, collaborative hub for sharing news and views.

ELNet operates without funding or grants (unfortunately) and is therefore dependent on the passion, professionalism and dedication of our core team and on an extensive network of volunteers, supporters, partners and donors.
