What's the most unusual place you can get your writing read? How about this, as reported in the Scotsman:
"From next month, poetry lovers on the Shetland Islands will be able to read the best of locally written verse while they are on the loo in public toilets.
The project is being headed by Jen Hadfield, the Shetland-based poet who was last month awarded the prestigious TS Eliot prize for poetry for Nigh-No-Place, her second book of poetry written in Shetland.
Ms Hadfield yesterday appealed to local poets to submit poems for the competition. Six of the best entries will be chosen every three months."
Well, getting read is getting read, so I thought I should bog, er, blog about this...
(If you've been putting off writing because you don't know how to start, start by buying my book, "Your Writing Coach," published by Nicholas Brealey Publishing--it will guide you all the way from idea through to publication.)
