Banshee Issue 9 launches this Thursday (October 17th) in The Winding Stair bookshop in Dublin, 6.30pm-8pm. There’ll be readings, chats & wine on the night. All welcome! Banshee Issue 10 is open for submissions until midnight on Halloween (October 31st). Accepting short stories, essays/memoir/creative non-fiction, flash fiction, and poetry. I’ve written articles about submitting to literary journals (why it’s worthwhile, and how to go about doing so) and setting up a small press (and how things take longer than you imagine they will) for writing.ie.Even more new writing workshops open for booking at the Big Smoke Writing Factory, including an Intermediate Children’s/YA Fiction workshop on Saturday 23rd November. Other cool one-day workshops: Creativity Workshop (general) 9th November, Experimental Fiction 16th November, Poetry Workshop 23rd November, World-Building 23rd November, and Creative Writing for the 21st Century 30th November.And there are online courses on offer, too, with both November and January start dates.Books I am loving at the moment: Set Me On Fire, a poetry anthology edited by Ella Risbridger; the children’s non-fiction book Dare To Dream by Sarah Webb & illustrated by Graham Corcoran; D.O.G.S. by M.A. Bennett, a sequel to her first YA novel, S.T.A.G.S.Other stuff I am loving at the moment: the soundtrack to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (in Dublin recently); Elizabeth Gilbert’s Instagram; season 3 of Big Mouth.
