Q and A for IRISH MONTH at THE READING LIFE

I am Q&A-ing with Mel Ulm over on The Reading Life blog today. Yesterday he took a look at my short story collection To The World of Men, Welcome (Arlen House) here.

Lots of other writers have taken part in the Q&A - this is Mel's annual Irish Writing Month - and many of them are worth a look to compare responses. Fred Johnston's answers are particularly interesting - honest and provocative. Which makes a change from the PR speak and blandness we are usually subjected to. Other writers interviewed include Pat Jourdan (again, very interesting as always), ditto Órfhlaith Foyle and Geraldine Mills. Are we noticing a Galway bias??!!
