Remaining a Writer: How Long is Yours? - Underword: National Flash Fiction Day 2012, May 16

http://remainingawriter.blogspot.com/2012/05/how-long-is-yours-underword-national.html

Making the writing life a reality. How Long is Yours? Underword: National Flash Fiction Day 2012, May 16. 27ish fantastic flash fiction writers performed last night at Underword, hosted in celebration of the first National Flash Fiction Day by the bebearded Gavin Inglis. It turned out that nobody really knew what flash fiction was, but it was the resulting variety of lengths and forms that made the evening so interesting. Some of the flashes, tbh, were just short stories to my haiku-addled mind. Other st...

Displacement: March 2015

http://displacement-poetry.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 10 March 2015. In praise of StAnza; Carolyn Forché in praise of the festival. Cleaning 100 baths. Eider ducks. Sunday, the last day: sunshine on bare branches and gulls’ wings, dark blue sea. Blossom coming out in the Byre’s outer yard. The sound of suitcases being wheeled over the bumpy thresholds of events. One nice thing about the end of festivals is that everyone can thank the people who made them happen…. They projected a sense of enjoyment. She’d been working flat out, of course &#82...

Remaining a Writer: Writing in Cafés: Five Places to Write in Edinburgh

http://remainingawriter.blogspot.com/2011/10/writing-in-cafes-five-places-to-write.html

Making the writing life a reality. Writing in Cafés: Five Places to Write in Edinburgh. In the run up to NaNoWriMo. There has been much talk amongst Edinburgh's future novelists about where the best places to write are. I have thought long and hard about this, by which I mean thought a little about this. Here are my suggestions for NaNo writing haunts, presented in no particular order. Any Starbucks, or Coffee Shops in General. The Pulp Fiction Store. This new book shop's. Owner Steve informs me that it ...

Remaining a Writer: Review: 'Art' by Yasmina Reza (READING Plays? Part 2/2)

http://remainingawriter.blogspot.com/2011/10/review-art-by-yasmina-reza-reading.html

Making the writing life a reality. Review: 'Art' by Yasmina Reza (READING Plays? The first play I ever read. In the Faber and Faber translation by Christopher Hampton. This choice was inspired by a gentleman with a ginger moustache and a blue velvet jacket saying it was his favourite play, and greatly facilitated by my mother leaving a copy in the bathroom at roughly the same time. That's a true story. The first page of Art. Is somewhat encouraging for beginner writers. It contains the line:. Now imagine...

Remaining a Writer: Review: The Calling Card Script by Paul Ashton

http://remainingawriter.blogspot.com/2011/10/review-calling-card-script-by-paul.html

Making the writing life a reality. Review: The Calling Card Script by Paul Ashton. The Calling Card Script: A Writer's Toolbox for Stage and Screen. A and C Black. Paul Ashton's opinions about writing are to be taken very seriously. There's a simple reason: he's one of the BBC's development producers. Frankly, he could say scripts should all be written on pink scented paper and anyone sensible would run to Rymans immediately and stock up. Examples usually annoy me, but here Ashton has been careful to use...
