This is a list of writers in English and Cornish, who are associated with Cornwall and Cornish linguists (Cornish: Rol a skriforyon Kernewek). Not all of them are native Cornish people. Some Cornish writers have reached a high level of prominence, e.g. William Golding, who won the Nobel Prize for literature (in 1983), D. M. Thomas who won the Cheltenham Prize for Literature and Arthur Quiller-Couch ("Q"). Some of the "incomers" have written extensively about Cornwall and the Cornish, e.g. Daphne du Maurier, who went as far as joining Mebyon Kernow.
