Donie’s lovely, heartfelt acceptance speech @TheOrwellPrize ❤️
My poem, ‘A Dream of One More Outing’, dedicated to my wonderful mother-in-law, Moira, starts at 9.45. I’ve tried to capture what a trailblazer she was. I’m thrilled that Zöe and Edel ‘got’ what I was trying to say. Thanks for the opportunity.#ThePrompt rte.ie/radio/podcasts…
On tonight! 🤞
Here’s a snippet from RTÉ’s Culture page of my piece, ‘A Dream of One More Outing’ on The Prompt, Episode 2, Sunday 1st June, RTÉ Radio 1. Thanks to the mighty Zöe Comyns and Edel Coffey for this fantastic opportunity. Available online and on Podcasts rte.ie/radio/podcasts…
The Prompt, Sunday Night, 1st June, RTÉ Radio 1, 7.30pm. My gratitude to Edel and Zöe. X This piece was written during a stint at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre earlier this year. Last photo is my high tech recording studio aka the hot press, or airing cupboard if you’ve notions.

One of my favourites, especially when I heard him read it at the John Hewitt International Summer School. RIP Paul Durcan, you inspired so many of us, and left an amazing body of work.
