I’m Kirstin Innes, a writer, journalist and freelance arts PR working in Glasgow.
- Writing I’m currently writing my first novel, Fishnet, which is in part about the sex industry. I’ve also had a number of stories published in collections/magazines/websites, most notably The Year of Open Doors (Cargo, 2010) and in the Edinburgh International Book Festival’s Elsewhere collection.
- Journalism I write arts features for The Scotsman, Scotland On Sunday, The Herald, The Independent and The List, and may post the ones I’m prouder of here from time to time
- PR I’ve got seven years’ experience running press and media campaigns for a variety of arts organisations. Info on some of those projects, or how to hire me, here.
- Performance I run Words Per Minute, a monthly spoken word/performance/live music/film/ generally excellent event at the Arches in Glasgow. I’ve also performed my own work at various events, including the Edinburgh International Book Festival, the HydroConnect Festival, Wigtown Book Festival, the Margins Festival and the Emerging Writers Festival in Melbourne, Australia. I do perform at events that aren’t festival-related too.
