Emerging from Covid : update
As we prepare for the online launch of a printed 'Southlight 29'
at 8.00 pm on Sunday 16th May, we reflect on the preceding year, so difficult for all creative folk. 'Southlight 27' was ready to go to print when lockdown struck and cancelled both publication and launch including our printer's operations. Wigtown Book Festival website stepped in and posted
27 and 28 online but we were delighted when it became possible to make a print version of 29, which we present for your pleasure.
We look forward to the possibility of a launch in person for Southlight 30
for which we are now gathering material.
See our submissions guide.
