Bridging the Gap

A festive Open Mic featuring voices from the Scottish Highlands and Central Belt

Tuesday 15th December 2020 at 6.30pm on Zoom

The Edinburgh Literary Salon and HighlandLIT are collaborating to present this unique evening of fiction, prose and poetry, with twelve five-minute slots, six assigned to writers from each area. 

​

Details of how to sign up to read at the event, and to join the audience will be announced as soon as possible.

The theme ‘Bridging the Gap’ symbolizes the aim of the event – to bring into contact voices from different parts of Scotland, isolated by distance and by COVID-19 restrictions.  But your piece of writing could interpret the theme literarally, figuratively, or interpersonally.

Although there’s room for serious pieces, the mood of the event will be generally light-hearted as befits the season. Feel free to wear festive gear (or not!) and to bring a drink or two to the screen. The event will last for 90 minutes, after which those who wish can continue chatting on Zoom, bridging the gap……
