Mark Thomson writes and performs his street poetry at poetry slams and festivals, including The Wickerman Festival, with other like-minded poets, bringing music and poetry together. He began writing after completing a Hilltown Horizons literary course, where he met other Dundonian poets Kevin McCabe and Gary Robertson.
