Chris Tait is a poet and fantasy writer from Shetland. She lives in Glasgow and attends many writer's groups and open mic sessions in the central belt. She has published two graphic novels “Diablo the Fantastical Adventures of an Unloved Chess Piece” and “Diablo and the Leprechaun Figurehead.”  Chris' Scots poetry and writing stands out from the crowd, with her unique flow and style, and if you are lucky enough to hear Chris perform her writing you are in for a treat, with her lyrical accent providing the perfect backdrop for her fantasy settings, all created through her alchemy of words, which is magnificently magical, and reflects her Shetland heritage and compliments Chris, and her beautiful accent.
