What a difference a week makes! I now have five groups of Creative Writers, including one of 10-14-year-olds, and it's so invigorating and inspiring to hear so much fresh new work each week. Imagination is an incredible thing and the right choice of word has such an impact. We laugh, we debate, we stop and think, and we cry. I am back in my happy creative zo...
I'm current Chairman of the Irish Writers' Union and sit on the Board of Directors of the Irish Copyright Licensing Agency. I teach creative writing with the ETB and I'm a Professional Mentor at the Irish Writers' Centre. In 2012 I was among the Irish authors who set a Guinness World Record for the number of continuous readings from their published books.
