Earlier this week I took part in a fun project. I'd been asked to participate in the recording of a special BBC Radio Ulster Kintra programme celebrating the Ulster Scots Agency's 'Yarns' publication.
On Thursday evening we gathered round a big dining room table for a blether about our writing and 'Yarns'.
I have two poems included in the fourth edition of 'Yarns'. It was an honour to be asked to participate in this special Kintra programme and great to see behind the scenes and appreciate all the production work involved in an episode of Kintra. I'm looking forward to hearing the programme when it airs in a few weeks' time.
More blethering took place yesterday seated round another big dining table when I was back at Coney with writing pals. With mugs of tea and coffee and my rhubarb and ginger muffins, we caught up on news - what we're working on, what we've been doing since we last met, writing workshops we've attended - made plans and did some research and some writing.
And we were so busy blethering, we didn't notice the sun had come out - 'Ye cannae beat a cup of tea an a guid wee blether'.
