The Meath Writers' Circle/May 2010


Meath Writers' Circle.


The Meath Writers' Circle held their monthly get together at The Castle Hotel in Trim tonight with Paddy Smith of the Boyne Writers dropping in with the program notes and the rules for The Battle of the Books. An event to take place during The Swift Festival in the town which runs from the 1st to the 4th of July. Judges to operate from an agreed definition of satire! Get your retaliation in first. Plots afoot! Anyway all sound very interesting, with "Fringe Festival" as extra.

Tommy Murray has plans to publish a novel for teenagers, and a book of poetry for children, news of the launch dates to be announced in the near future. How does he do it? And Pat Bennett should have a book ready later in the year,while James Linnane is also close to finishing his. And just to finish off some of the poetry and prose read tonight was exceptional. Hard to keep up!
