"A Year ago on this very Day"

Opening Night  Listowel Writers' Week 2014

My first pic shows the packed ballroom in The Listowel Arms for Opening Night 2014. Then a flavour of the charming mix of local people and celebrities that makes Writers' Week so intimate and so global at the same time.


Paul Durkan

Colm Tóibín

Mark Piggott


Bert, Paula and Vincent never miss an opening night



 Eliza Buckley whose singing charmed us all.

Where Fun and Frolics were to be had





Listowel Community Centre, venue for  The National Children's Literary Festival at Writers' Week. This year again, the children's programme will be centered in the Community Centre.

Take a look at these photos from last year (2014) . An even better  programme of children's events is planned for this year.

And in May 2015 this development is going on at Cahirdown  beside the An Post Centre. It's a new service station, I'm told.
