Welcome from the WaT Team!
Words & Things is the premier Sheffield based website for creative writing and musical performance featuring our popular live events! If you’re a writer, poet, singer, musician or even a budding comedian, then this is the place for you!

We’ve been in
existence since
2007
when the website was built just for a few friends to publish their
poems and thoughts. We couldn’t have predicted what was to come in
the three years after with all of the adventures, events and
interesting and talented people that we’ve come in to contact
with, and now with over11,500 visits to this site!
These events have
led to us starting a new venture into the world of producing an
online
radio show.
This was originally going to be aimed at promoting and airing
unknown and unsigned musical talent from around the Sheffield
area. However, due to the power of the internet and networking
sites like Facebook and
MySpace, we managed to contact,
and be contacted by, artists from all over the world. This all
serves well for Words And Things’ plan for world domination.
As you can see we have huge plans for the Words And Things
project. This also means that we are always on the lookout for
people who want to get involved and help us with the running of
the organisation. This can be anything from helping to maintain
the website, down to designing and distributing promotional
literature, to aiding in the organising and running of our live
events - and anything in between. If you want to get involved
leave a message in the
Guestbook
or simply,
drop us an e-mail

Firstly
apologies for the late updates to the site. It's that time of
year when members of the team have taken a well deserved summer
holiday break, which means things have fallen a little behind.
Also we have had a few technical problems with the updating of
pages, hopefully this will be fully resolved soon.
