Salt is opening a new Scottish arm based in Glasgow and plans to extend its Scottish list significantly. On Saturday 29 May, there’lll be a series of events in Edinburgh to launch and celebrate this new venture, culminating in a reading of new fiction and poetry 4:30 pm for a 5 pm start, finishing at 7 pm at the Scottish Poetry Library (£3 on the door). The evening features an international Salt line-up, with readings by me, Rob A Mackenzie, Hawthornden fellow Wena Poon, Crashaw Prize winner Ryan van Winkle and more Salt readers to be confirmed. We also have a special guest in the shape of the excellent Tim Turnbull. I’ll post more as information becomes available. There’s a Facebook event here. Hope to see you there!
