Although writing is his first priority, Chris Arthur occasionally takes on reading engagements. For example, he was visiting writer at Wroxton College (Oxfordshire) in January 2011, reading extracts from Words of the Grey Wind to Fairleigh Dickinson University's MFA creative writing students. (Previous visiting writers at Wroxton include Zadie Smith, Colm Tóibín, Jeanette Winterson, Sebastian Barry, Ruth Padel and Paul Muldoon). He has also acted for a range of publishers, both in the UK and USA, and may sometimes be willing to undertake manuscript evaluations.
To arrange a reading, or commission a manuscript evaluation, please use the email address above.
"The essay is an open form. It gives a writer the freedom to travel in any direction, even on occasion to reverse direction in midcourse, or to make some very surprising turns."
