Since it first kythit in 1972 The Scots Leid Associe/The Scots Language Society has ettled tae publish a fowth o screivins by the maist by ordinair makars and screivers o Scots in the pages o its bi-annual magazine, Lallans. Lallans is a ferlie in itsel, haen survived and fordered tae rax tae its 100th issue in 2022.

Whiles poetry in Scots has aften been tae the fore, the first editor o Lallans, JK Annand, recognised that prose in Scots needit a heeze by prentin mair fiction, owersettin, drama, reviews and non-fiction airticles on ilka subjeck.

Wunds That Blaw Sae Roch is an gaitheran o some o the best walins by the furthmaist prose authors in the Scots leid ower this hauf century o mensefou chynge in Scottish life, politics and cultur. It sterts wi the makars at the hinder-end o The Scottish Leiterary Renaissance and taks the reader up intil the here and nou and the new generation o screivers, the bairns o the Scottish Paurliement.

Wunds That Blaw Sae Roch is pruif that Scots is no a deean language. Alang wi Sangs That Sing Sae Sweit (The Scots poetry anthology that is published sib wi it) it is steekit wi tentfou, thochtie and brawsome celebrations o our kintrae, our landscape, fowk, sangs, leir and history. While it celebrates the cairrying stream o bonnie screivers, some wha hae passed on, it bides relevant and luiks faurrit tae the hecht and hairst o the future.

Wunds That Blaw Sae Roch tells us that the Scots leid is whaur it aye has been - the ongaun and virrfou vyce o the fowk.
