Sparks is an exciting anthology of stories, poems, novel and script extracts, showcasing the best new writing from the MA programmes at Bath Spa University. Edited, produced, and promoted by the students, the anthology celebrates the diversity and originality of tomorrow's award-winning and best-selling writers.
Bath Spa University is one of the UK's leading centres for creative writing, and the MA programmes have fostered many of the most original and acclaimed writers of the past decade, including Tessa Hadley, Tricia Wastvedt, Mimi Thebo, and Mo Hayder. Sparks is an opportunity to read some of the next decade's most exciting voices.
This website features extracts from all the writers in the anthology, details and links for purchasing a copy, and latest news about events surrounding the publication of the anthology.
Sparks was launched at the Bath Literature Festival on Monday 6 March 2006.
