This year sees the launch of our first anthology of new writing from within the walls of Bournemouth University. The final year students from these two degree programmes submitted the opening of their novels, short stories and poems for inclusion in Fresh – A Collection of New Writing. The students have also been involved in the production process of both the print and digital editions, working as copy editors, cover designers, PRs and marketeers. For many, this is their first time in print, and publishing – but we are sure it won’t be their last!
