Christie Williamson spent the earliest years of his life in the island of Yell, in Shetland. From there he travelled the well worn path to the West End of Glasgow, via six years in and around the University of Stirling. His poetry has been published in the New Shetlander, Shetland Life and Lallans, as well as anthologies The Pull of the Moon/Bicycle Dreams and North, and has been heard in Shetland, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Wigtown. He was runner up in “The William Soutar Open Writing Prize 2006” and “The Wigtown Poetry Competition 2007”, and in 2007 translated Federico Garcia Lorca’s poetry into Shetlandic for “Lorca’s Shadow”, first produced as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2007.
