"Sarah Salway is an astonishingly smart writer. Her fiction is always beautifully structured, touching and clever -- she manages the trick of making people that you care about in stories you admire. I can't wait to see what she does next."
Neil Gaiman

Hello and welcome to my site. Whether you know my work already or have just arrived here by accident, I hope you find something useful.

Although originally a fashion journalist, I now also write prose fiction – short stories and novels – and poetry. This site gives me the chance to talk about this and to showcase examples of my work. Daily writing prompts are available on my blog.
The stories, extracts, columns and poems on this site are all copyright protected so if you want to use or reproduce the, you need to ask first. Please email me at sarah@sarahsalway.com.
