'I don’t want to hold back. If you’re going to do it, go there.” What a thrill to interview the inimitable Deirdre O'Kane for this week's Irish Times Magazine irishtimes.com/life-style/peo…
The Alternatives publishes in the UK + IRL on Thursday. I’m grateful to Niamh Donnelly for this gracious, thoughtful interview in Irish Times Magazine. Print interviews do give me the heebie-jeebies, so it makes a difference when there’s a kind reader on board.

Great interview with author Nuala O’Connor by Niamh Donnelly about her late-diagnosed autism, a trait she shares with pirate Anne Bonney, hero of her latest novel, Seaborne, and how all her protagonists have been versions of herself.
