Neurospicy Novel Writing, Scottish Dialect, and Why Duck Feet Are More Important Than Penguin with Ely Percy
Ely is just brilliant! I had a fabulous time chatting with them about writing – particularly about disability themes and the importance of representing authentic Scottish dialect. In fact, there's a lot about authenticity and staying true to yourself in this conversation, and it's well worth a listen if you're a writer. Their novel is due for another print run in November, so pre-order now!
Ely Percy is an award-winning Scottish writer, best known for their novel ‘Duck Feet’ which was shortlisted for a Barbellion. They won Scottish Novel of the Year Award 2021 - a fact that slipped their mind when giving me the lowdown on their work. Their first publication was a letter in ‘Big!’ Magazine (1994). Since then, they’ve released a memoir ‘Cracked’ (2002), contributed many stories to literary journals, and published two novels ‘Vicky Romeo Plus Joolz’ (2019) and ‘Duck Feet’ (2021).
