RSL Open
The RSL believes that literature is at its best when it includes voices from the greatest breadth of backgrounds and experiences from across the UK. Through RSL Open, we’re electing 60 RSL Fellows from communities under-represented in UK literature – particularly writers outside of London, writers of colour, working class writers and LGBTQ+ writers. We are currently seeking public recommendations of excellent writers from around the UK.
