VANE WOMEN
We are a writing, performing and publishing collective, formed in 1991. We grew from a women's writing class at the late lamented Darlington Arts Centre in Vane Terrace.

In 2023, Vane Women Press celebrated 30 years of publishing. We specialise in first pamphlets (poetry or short stories) of women who live in the North East of England. Since 1993, we have brought out 23 beautiful pamphlets, two full collections and seven anthologies. You can buy most of these books on Our Publications page.
To mark this milestone, we published two new books: our anniversary anthology, Glorious Vane, featuring a poem or short story from our Vane Women Press writers (see above), and our superb 24th pamphlet, Safety Measures against the Sea, a first book by Katharine Goda. Both are available to buy on our publications page.
