Just some of the images from the Swift Sessions last night in The Swift Cultural Centre in Trim County Meath. Hosted by Michael Farry of The Boyne Writers Group the series will begin again in September and all are invited to read. Last of the featured readers in this series was myself and I'd like to thank everyone who showed up on the night and especially to Michael Farry and the Boyne Writers for asking and for the photos. There was a wide variety of material read and most of it was outstanding both in content and performance. Hope to see you there in the future. All the best. FM.

The Swift Sessions May 22 ~ 2025!

Chaired by Michael Farry of the Boyne Writers Group, the next of the sessions at The Swift Cultural Centre in Trim features myself but it is also an Open Mic for anyone who'd like to drop in or contribute a piece of writing or song. All are welcome and the admission is free. Where better than that and as a venue for the arts, few places or towns have such a facility. Hope to see you there.
