Carl
has been appointed the Hugh MacDiarmid Writing Fellow
at the poet’s former home, Brownsbank
Cottage, Candymill, near Biggar, which Carl will use
as a working base. He will be organising a series of
workshops and events in the New Year which will be
posted on this site. In the meantime, to find out more

"Carl
is a hero of mine... a great storyteller." BILLY CONNOLLY
"His work has a unique and distinctive flavour; the writing is beautiful." GEORGE MACKAY BROWN
"Carl MacDougall is a writer who is willing to be jumped on by things everyone
doesn't see." RUSSELL HOBAN
"He doesn’t always write about Glasgow... but when he does, he manages
better than almost any other writer to communicate place and people together,
and in balance; our intangible criterion for a Glasgow short story." MOIRA BURGESS
