Hey relax guy. LOL
I wish I could see his face seeing this episode.

The creators of South Park have more integrity than every fucking news media corporation in this fucking country.

For anyone looking at those reposts on Burns I just shared, and curious about Scottish poetry, but not sure where to begin, may I suggest some of our new generation of younger poets such as Len Pennie, Michael Pedersen or Jeda Pearl. And of course the veterans such as the wonderful Jackie Kay, or the (sadly now late) John Burnside.

For more ideas, snippets of the works etc, try the Scottish Poetry Library https://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/

NEW WRITING SCOTLAND

ASL is seeking applications to be a co-editor of New Writing Scotland, from writers currently based in Scotland. Applicants should have a strong publishing record of their own, with a focus on prose; previous editorial experience would be an advantage. The post will run for up to three years from 2026, for volumes 44, 45, and 46, publishing in 2026, 2027, and 2028 (dependent on funding).

Our editors jointly select approximately 50 pieces – poetry and prose – from the English- and Scots-language submissions we receive each year. The submissions are anonymised, and we provide editors with paper copies to read. As an editor, we’d ask you to attend launches in Edinburgh and Glasgow (travelling expenses would be paid). Editors receive an annual £1500 stipend and full editorial credit.

We encourage applications from all backgrounds and particularly welcome applications from people who are under-represented within the sector, including from BPOC applicants (Black people and People of Colour), disabled people, LGBTQIA+ applicants and those from a low socioeconomic background.

Please send a CV and a one-page application letter, outlining your qualifications for the position, to admin@asls.org.uk by midnight on Monday 4 August 2025.

Submission to New Writing Scotland is free and open to all. You can find our submission instructions here.
