A weekend of writing

After a busy week it was good to spend time at the weekend on writing related activities. The weekend got off to a good start when my edition of 'Writing' magazine popped through the letterbox to provide new inspiration and ideas for writing projects. It usually takes me the entire month to read it from cover to cover as I like to dip in and out of it.

On Saturday I was back down at Coney Island for a workshop with my writing pals. We caught up with each others' writing news (and there was a LOT to catch up on!) and did a fun writing exercise. And of course we were fuelled by coffee and muffins - this time of the chocanana variety.


On Sunday evening I was on BBC Radio Ulster's Kintra programme talking about and reading from my award winning story 'Worth Hir Saut'. If you missed it, you can catch it here https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001hw1w (only available for the next few weeks) 


My story, along with the work of the other prizewinners in this year's Linenhall library Ulster Scots writing competition is published in a beautiful booklet, available to purchase from the Linenhall library.
