Our friends at Friction Magazine and Journal have published an article linked to From Glasgow to Saturn in their new issue, which may be of interest. Friction is the creative writing journal of Newcastle University and boasts excellent non-fiction articles as well as prose and poetry.

Emerging and aspiring writers are finding it difficult to compete with the annual deluge of celebrity ghost-written biographies, cultish parodies and novelty drivel which is bought in three-for-two promotions each winter with festive zeal. Is it any wonder publishers commit fat chunks of their budgets towards these, rather than ushering unknown writers towards an uninterested public?
