World Book Night: Book Giveaway!

by //


World Book Night is an initiative to share the love of reading taking place on 23 April 2013. Every year they give away 1 million books, and this year I have volunteered as a giver.

You can read about my experiences as a World Book Night giver in previous years here and here.

I’m giving away 3 copies of Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman on my YouTube channel.

HOW TO ENTER: 
1. Subscribe to http://youtube.com/robotnic
2. Leave a comment on this video telling me why you love reading, or how you share your love of reading 
3. If you’re under 18, please ask permission from a parent or guardian 

Winners will be chosen at random and announced and contacted on World Book Night, 23 April 2013. If you are a winner, I will message you via YouTube.

Film Reviews – Oblivion & The Place Beyond the Pines

by //

Today I will be making my first appearance on BBC Radio Scotland’s new arts show: The Culture Studio with Janice Forsyth.

Listen in 3-4pm when Paul Gallagher and I review Oblivion, The Place Beyond the Pines, Schindler’s List (20th Anniversary BluRay release), and discuss event cinema.

The programme airs every weekday, 2-4pm, and features arts and culture chat along with music. It replaces The Culture Café, The Book Café, and The Movie Café (to which I used to contribute).

Listen live, catch-up, and find out more on the BBC website.
