About us
SWF: The Friendliest Gathering of Writers on the Planet
The Stockholm Writers Festival is a weekend gathering of writers who come together to find the inspiration, knowhow and network that will help them bring their stories to the world. Our event is held in English. But we welcome writers who work in all languages. The knowledge gained during the Festival is relevant to all writers, regardless of experience level, genre, or background.
Each year, we invite local and international teachers, industry experts and real, live agents to the Swedish capital to share their experience and insights with our attendees. This year, the industry's leading guru, Jane Friedman will run an intensive on how to get published. Tiffany Yates Martin, one of the best editors in the business, will do a deep dive on manuscript revision.

The Stockholm Writers Festival
Historiska museet, Narvavägen 13-17, Stockholm, SEJoin the friendliest gathering of writers on the planet: The Stockholm Writers Festival, June 13
For nine years running, we've gathered emerging writers and published authors under one roof to learn about the business, hone craft and meet other writers.
At this year’s Stockholm Writers Festival, we’re offering a special intensive edition. On Saturday, June 13, work with two of the biggest names in publishing: Jane Friedman and Tiffany Yates Martin. At the start of the day, you’ll be assigned to a group with one of them. Jane Friedman will lead an intensive workshop about the business of writing. Tiffany will guide you in how to best revise your manuscript. Then, in the afternoon, groups will switch subjects.
All writers will participate in both the Business and Revision workshops.
Groups will be small with no more than 35 writers to allow for intensive instruction using your work. These lessons apply to all genres and publishing paths: self-publishing, indie, and traditional. In the afternoon, you will switch instructors. As usual, we’ll also give you plenty of opportunities to hang out with your fellow writers!
Give your writing the attention it deserves. Join us June 13, at Historiska Museum.
