Colin Galbraith <colingalbraith>
"Author, poet, publisher, fake-faller."


I am Chief Editor and Publisher of The Ranfurly Review, and an Associate Editor at The Scruffy Dog Review. I have published short stories, poems, non-fiction articles and reviews in both print and online publications.

My novel, Hunting Jack, was serialised in 2004 by US-based publisher Keep It Coming, and my first chapbook, Fringe Fantastic: The Poet's Experience of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, was published in paperback in December 2005 to critical acclaim. Poolside Poetry is my second paperback and was published in March 2007.

I have published three e-books of poetry; Brick by Brick (2005), Silly Poems for Wee People Vol.1 (2006), and Selektion (2007). I edited my first anthology, Full Circle – An ARS Concordia Anthology in 2007.

Poems for Pints and Silly Poems for Wee People Vol.2 are both scheduled for publication in 2008.

I live in Edinburgh with my wife and daughter, and my website can be found by logging on to www.colingalbraith.co.uk

    Awright MrG! How you doing mate? You're looking very sophisticated in that picture!;-) It's been far too long since I've been in touch. Hope you're keeping well and still spreading the word of the Madness! I've just been a boring teacher with nothing much happening in life. Just plodding on as usual. Cheers for now, Peter
