  New Writing Scotland is the principal forum for poetry and short fiction in Scotland today. Every year it publishes the very best from both emerging and established writers, and lists many of the leading literary lights of Scotland among its past (and present) contributors. Available this summer, The Dynamics of Balsa is the latest collection of excellent contemporary literature, drawn from a wide cross-section of Scottish culture and society. Over the last twenty-five years New Writing Scotland has published early material by Iain Banks, Anne Donovan, Janice Galloway, A. L. Kennedy, James Meek, Ian Rankin, Suhayl Saadi and Irvine Welsh, along with a host of other talents. What rising stars are shining in this edition?
