This month’s guest: Lorraine Wilson
Join us for our Asian Writers Group on Wednesday 20 April at 7pm-9:00pm.
Please be mindful when booking. This is a focus group for Asian writers based in Scotland (or who, pre-COVID, would have normally been resident in Scotland).
For writers of East Asian, Southeast Asian, South Asian, West Asian, and/or mixed heritage
Our Asian Writers Group returns on 20 April with guest speaker Lorraine Wilson! She’ll be talking to us about her work both on the page and as a writing mentor, answering your questions, chatting about the writing life, and more.
If you have questions that you’d like to ask her, you can send them to group facilitator Kelly Kanayama in advance at scottishbpocwriters@gmail.com.
Lorraine is a conservation scientist who now lives by the sea in Scotland writing speculative fiction influenced by folklore and the wilderness. Her debut novel, This Is Our Undoing, was released last year and a second, The Way The Light Bends, is coming out in August 2022. She runs a mentoring programme for marginalised writers and can mostly be found tweeting @raine_clouds.
