Sometimes I get interviewed and sometimes I make audio poems. I’ll be touching this page up with more context soon but, for now, here is an archive of un-catagorizable stuff I have done.
Interviews
BBC Scotland Book Cafe – 16 Feb, 2009
BBC Radio Scotland invited me to appear on The Book Cafe on Monday 16 February. I spoke to host, Chris Dolan, about poetry and my job as Reader in Residence. I’ll also got a chance to share some of my favorite poems with Sam Kelly and the writer Denise Mina who wrote the Garnethill books as well as Hellblazer for Vertigo. I tried to match poems to people’s reading, music and film tastes.
For those wondering what poems I recommended:
Chris Dolan: New Heart by Federico Garcia Lorca & Grief by Matthew Dickman
Sam Kelly: Succubus by Tim Turnbull & Burial by Momcilo Nastasijevic
Denise Mina: The Gun by Vicki Feaver & Cuckoo Corn by Paul Muldoon

In October of 2008 I was invited to talk about poetry on The Book Cafe with Lilias Fraser from The Scottish Poetry Library and presenter Clare English. In case you missed us, or want to hear us again, here is the edited interview.
