Residencia Literaria 1863: Miriam Luki

As part of the programme jointly promoted by the Etxepare Basque Institute and Residencia Literaria 1863, writer Miriam Luki will spend one month in A Coruña in November 2026 for a literary residency. During her stay, she will develop her new literary project.

The programme is aimed at authors writing in Basque and seeks to support literary creation by providing writers with the space, time and culturally dynamic environment needed to focus fully on their projects.

Miriam Luki

Miriam Luki (Urretxu, 1973) is a journalist and writer. She currently works at Galtzagorri, the Basque-language children’s and young adult literature association, where she develops and coordinates projects for reading mediators.

Her published works include Argialdiak (Susa, 2023), Erreka (Bermingham, 2018) and Euslandia, unibertso txiki baterako galderak (Mondragon Unibertsitatea and Lanku, 2010).

Argialdiak, her first collection of short stories, was published by Susa in 2023, with a second edition released that same year. She currently combines literary creation with reading mediation, both in children’s and young adult literature and in adult reading groups.

A one-month creative residency in A Coruña

Miriam Luki will spend November at Residencia Literaria 1863 in A Coruña.

The residency will allow her to develop her new literary project away from her usual routine and in a context specifically devoted to literary creation.

The residency organised jointly by the Etxepare Basque Institute and Residencia Literaria 1863 aims to support literary creation in Basque and provide Basque writers with the opportunity to develop their projects in an international context.

In the previous edition, Nerea Ibarzabal Salegi was the Basque writer selected to take part in the programme. In November 2025, she completed a one-month residency in A Coruña to develop her literary project.
