BBC Scotland, in collaboration with the Scottish Poetry Library, is searching for a new poet-in-residence. Building on the success of their first residency in 2015, BBC Scotland is offering poets at the start of their career a platform from which to talk to the country. Do you have a fresh take on the events that get Scots talking? Could you be a champion for poetry? The blog has all the details.
