Emily Bronte's extraordinary book has been owerset (translated) into Doric, also known as Aberdeenshire Scots, by Sheena Blackhall and Linda Smith. We are delighted to announce we have a grant from the Doric Board towards this project, to cover the authors' printing costs. This is an encouraging development because it could give options to other prospective Fiction Direct authors, who might find suitable grant opportunities with their local councils or Arts organizations. Such grants would be for the authors, to enable the printing.
