Deena and Mark Rice are joined by the reclusive Scottish poet/songwriter James Pettigrew, who bursts into poetic flourishes at random intervals throughout the show, often with no warning. ?In this, the first interview that the notoriously solitary Pettigrew has given, he discusses his motivations for writing, his zero desire for commercial success, his wariness of using writing as catharsis (a view which has sparked explosive arguments with Mark), his creative process for songwriting and poetry, and his involvement with Writers Inc: a group of Scottish novelists, aphorists, poets, screenwriters, playwrights, bards and bamsticks with whom he has been involved for over a decade, and which Mark more recently took over as chairperson. ?Deena, Mark and James talk about the impact that losing loved ones has had on them personally and creatively. ?The show digs beneath Pettigrew?s stoic exterior, offering a revealing glimpse into a complex and spontaneous individual.
