ABOUT YEAR ZERO WRITERS
Hi. Thank you for coming. This is a place for readers and writers. We like it here. We hope you do too. Everything you find here is written for you by us.
If you REALLY like what we do, you’ll find a comprehensive list of all the places you can buy our books here.
And if you want to be kept up to date about what we’re up to, as well as getting excerpts and articles in your inbox, you can subscribe to our monthly newsletter here.
For interviews and publicity material about Year Zero, please e-mail me at songsfromtheothersideofthewall@googlemail.com, get in touch with our writers across the globe, or head for the PRESS & MEDIA AREA and snaffle the press releases and press packs there.
If you want to know what the rest of the media’s been saying about us, and what we’ve been saying about ourselves (as Year Zero, see our individual authro pages for our private links), you might be interested in the Year 2.0 Writers section of the site.
Year Zero is a group of writers, all of whom believe passionately in the direct relationship between writers and their readers. As writers, we are committed to giving you our words unfiltered by market tastes or trends. And we’re committed to listening to what you have to say back. We are not a publishing company.
We share many of the same concerns, and ask many of the same questions. As a result you will, I hope, see a certain pattern to our blog as we seek together and separately to address our concerns.
As a collective we have a manifesto and articles of association - if you’re interested in starting a collective of your own, or curious about us, you may find them useful/interesting.

[...] From the moment I first saw this book, I knew it would be like none other I had ever experienced. This is a good thing.
