Two of the region’s best known poets and authors are to front up a creative writing project for young people in Kirkcudbright for a second year.
The welcome news came after the Holywood Trust, who part-funded the project for the first 12 months, chipped in with £2,525 for year two.Hugh said: “We are delighted that this project has received funding to run into a second year and are very grateful to the Holywood Trust.“Some of the finest work was by young people who had not written creatively much, or at all.
“It’s envisaged that this would include up to 20 sessions, culminating in a performance and publication in Book Week 2024.” “The book that Hugh published with our pupils’ work was very well received by the school community and pupils were proud to have their work in print.” Holywood Trust director Karen Ward Boyd added: “The Trust was delighted with the outcome of the first project last year and is pleased to be able to support the creative collaboration for a further year, with Kirkcudbright Academy pupils, Hugh McMillan, Stuart Paterson and Kirkcudbright Book Week.”
