Hi folks,
Just thought I'd update you on some forthcoming events. When I've the honour of being Writer in Residence at the International Festival of Middle Eastern Spirituality and Peace in Edinburgh later this month, as part of my remit I shall be doing some readings, etc.
2.00 p.m. Sat 25th Feb: Creative Writing Workshop, Traverse Theatre, Cambridge Street, Edinburgh. Tickets £4/£2. To book call 0131 228 1404 or email boxoffice@traverse.co.uk
7.30 p.m. Tue 28th Feb: Poetry Reading, Scottish Poetry Library, 5 Crichton's Close, Canongate, Edinburgh. Tickets £3/£2. To book call 0131 557 2876 or email reception@spl.org.uk
I will also be attending as many events as I can for the time I'm in Edinburgh. I am looking forward immensely to experiencing as much of the art, storytelling, music, drama, food, film and poetry that the festival has to offer. I shall then be writing a new piece of work based on my perceptions of the festival. It's going to be a fun, edifying experience, I reckon. Hopefully I can meet up with some of my Edinburgh-based friends while I'm in town, too. I have a soft spot for Edinburgh, of course, since I studied there. I think it'll be nicely hectic.
What else? My play The Callanish Stoned goes into reahearsal in less than a fortnight's time. I'm looking forward to that! Meanwhile we're getting posters, set designs and all the rest of those things underway.
The wee online shop I mentioned a while ago will be opening soon. The stuff (T-shirts, tops, etc) I've seen so far...what can I say? Very cool! 
I'm sure I had more to say, but I can't remember.
See you soon,
Kevin
