'The First Bit' by EmmaClaire Brightlyn - Book Launch

Join us for a spectacular launch event celebrating EmmaClaire Brightlyn's stunning debut pamphlet, The First Bit, supported by a cast of stellar of performance poets including Makar of the Scottish Women's Football Association Poetry Society Donna Matthew, Scottish and World Poetry Slam Champion Biff Smith, Scot's screiver Keeks Mc, and multi-disciplinary, multi-award-winning Loud Poets Slam Champion Spencer Mason. This will be a night like no other, join us!

Conversational and honest, The First Bit is an emotional reflection on early motherhood. Varying in form throughout, EmmaClaire steps into sleeplessness and frustration, and how matrescence changes her view of everything else in life. This collection is often funny, even in its struggle, and resonates with the relentlessness that comes with having a baby.
