Janice Forsyth tunes into what is happening and what is buzzing in the arts world.
On today's show we continue Radio Scotland's season on Mental Health with some funny ladies on serious issues - comedians Janey Godley and Felicity Ward.
Two experts on the mind, Dr Allan Beverage and psychotherapist Heather Bestel, plus author Jenni Fagan will be taking a look at how troubled minds are depicted in Scottish literature. They'll also be considering how we can all benefit from being absorbed by a good story.
Literary critic Stuart Kelly and independent bookshop owner Barry Young will also be joining the show with their ideas for good yarns and thought-provoking reads to carry us through the long winter nights ahead.
As well as all that, Janice's booky friends will also be giving their reaction to the Costa Award category winners, announced last night - with their bets for the overall winner revealed at the end of the month.
And art historian Anne Ellis goes head-to-head with graffiti artist Nico Major on the creative hot potato - does graffiti count as art?
