There’s prize-winning poetry from the Linenhall Library’s first Ulster-Scots writing competition on this week’s Kintra as poets Angela Graham and Gary Morgan talk about their work and share their poems. Writer Anne McMaster joins the team to talk about re-discovering her Ulster-Scots roots in her work, and Roberta Heaney from the Schomberg Society in Kilkeel has news of a fortnight of FUSE FM community radio in the weeks coming up to Christmas.
Keeping the chat going are this week’s team of Helen Mark, Rab Lennox and Jonnie Crawford.
As always, listeners are welcome to send their comments, feedback, details of an Ulster-Scots event they’d like to promote, or a good yarn to share – email the team at kintra@bbc.co.uk. Show less
