In the lead-up to this year's Wordfringe festival, which runs throughout May, Wordfringe presents a series of extra performances and workshops during March. These events take place at venues across Aberdeenshire, and feature a variety of writers who are either based in the North-East or have strong connections to the area.

You can hear two linked poetry events on the same evening in and around Tarland, featuring Sheena Blackhall and Kenneth Steven, and join Ian Crockatt for the Aberdeenshire launch of his new collection of Viking poetry. There's a chance to take part in a renga workshop with Colin Will, and we invite Magi Gibson back to Aberdeenshire to give another of her popular writing workshops in Stonehaven.

The full programme for Wordfringe 2009 will be announced in March, and will be available at these events.
