Open Mic.
The very talented Ross Hattaway and Oran Ryan were the guest readers at what was perhaps the most successful of the open mic readings at the Knightsbridge Village Hall. I doubt if I could do justice to either of the above, or to the quality of the other contributions, but Oran Ryan's shifting of perspectives in the extract from "Ten Short Novels..." and Ross Hattaway's reflection on the absurdity of things, or should that be the rotteness of things, using a rubbish bin as a focal point was no mean feat in either case. Rounding off things nicely (if you'll pardon the pun) the chairman Paddy Smith, no mean exponent of the above arts, ended the night with No More High Fives. "There was a breathless hush.....". Details of both Ross Hattaway's and Oran Ryan's publications can be had from The Boyne Writers' Site or Michael Farry's Blogsite. Click on the links opposite.
