Edition V — The Martello — So very pleased to have my poem Pyre in this brilliant journal. Please check it out. I was blessed to have Alan Murphy create stunning artwork to underscore my words. #ceasefireNOW themartellojournal.com/edition-v
Extraordinary readings of poetry today from Molly Twomey, Lauren O'Donovan, Michelle Delea, and Dean Browne - sad, funny, mesmerising. A great venue as well, Elizabeth Fort Cork as part of the Cork World Book Fest The rain didn’t dare fall. 🙂
Delighted to have read at the the martello journal launch last night, with fellow artist @allgumsblazing. Well done Jack and Úna for putting together an impressive publication and a terrific gathering University of Notre Dame Dublin in the historically significant former home of Daniel O’Connell.
Happy to have written a response to each of 31 images for 2024’s #ekphrasticchallenge - thank you @pauldragonwolf1 for the invite, and Karen Pierce Gonzalez for this particular image. More: bit.ly/3U9T6KL
Great news from Stripes Literary Magazine that my poem “Dear Reader” will be in the next issue. And thanks West Waterford Arts Group for another prompt, which came from last year’s #poetrydayireland theme - ‘message in a bottle’. The support of a #writinggroup can be immeasurable. #WritingCommunity
#nationalpoetrycompetition longlist. I have Molly Twomey to thank for being named here. I wrote the submitted poem at one of her workshops! #poetrylovers
Excited to have a poem in the upcoming the martello journal especially since it’s linked to art provided by my friend and fellow West Waterford Arts Group member Alan Murphy #collaboration #poetrycommunity
