Doric in a spin, a whirling pirouette,
A three percent rise in Cooncil Tax
Is aw they’re gonnae get.
An nae mair freebies tae Swan Lake
For oil executives on the make.
Excuse me if ye think A’m wrong,
A believe A’m hearing Sunset Song.

Before graduating in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh in 1995, I worked as a master joiner/carpenter. Following graduation from university, I studied for a post-graduate diploma in Community Education and worked as a literacy tutor in Community Learning and Development. I have gained education awards and published an academic paper on the use of Scots language in family literacy work. I have produced teachers' notes for the Scottish Book Trust. My first work of fiction, Justified Sinner, was completed in 2016. Since then I have published three more novels in the JP Associate series. View all posts by Alan Addison
