In July 200 I read at Waterstones bookshop to promote the anthology &#8216;Titles Are Bitches&#8217;.  Christmas 2001 I debuted at Newcastle&#8217;s famous Morden Tower doing a reading of my poems.  Each year I read for Proudwords lesbian and gay writing festival and I partook in workshops.  2005 saw the publication of my collection LOVEBITES published by Chanticleer Press, 6\/1 Jamaica Mews, Edinburgh.<br \/>\n &nbsp;<br \/>\n On Saturday 16Th August 2003 I read at the Edinburgh Festival as a Per Verse poet at LGBT Centre, Broughton St.<br \/>\n &nbsp;<br \/>\nREVIEWS: I have written poetry reviews for Poetry Scotland and Jacket Magazine and in August 2007 I made a film called &#8216;A Blank Screen, 60 seconds, 1 shot&#8217; for Queerbeats Festival at The Star &#038; Shadow Cinema Newcastle, reviewing a poem&#8230; On September 4 2010, I read at the Callander Poetry Weekend hosted by Poetry Scotland.  I have also written Art Criticism for Peel and Combustus Magazines.  I was involved in The Creative Engagement In Research Programme Research Constellation exhibitions of writing and photography which showed in London (march 13 2012) and Edinburgh (July 4 2013)<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nRobin Ouzman Hislop is Editor of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artvilla.com\/plt\">Poetry Life and Times<\/a> at <a href=\"http:\/\/Artvilla.com\">Artvilla.com <\/a>;
