Apologies for the late notice: the National Library of Scotland and the Scottish Poetry Library are hosting an Anybody BUT Burns edit-a-thon this Saturday from noon at the NLS (George IV Bridge, Edinburgh).
Burns' night is rapidly approaching and folk around the globe will be celebrating the Bard in style and good cheer, but we think that we should take a moment to think about the thousands of Scottish poets who won't be toasted this weekend! Local writers and literary enthusiasts alike are encouraged to join us and help boost the online profile of the poet who inspires them most. If you are a poet yourself, bring along some work and liven up the afternoon with a reading.
Tickets are available here: http://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/anybody-but-burns-wikipedia-edit-a-thon-ticket... - places are limited though!
Lunch is provided, but please notify the organisers of any dietary requirements in advance. Please feel free to share this event with anyone in or near Edinburgh who might be interested!
See you there!
