P.S. For Reading Out Loud

(me!)

I had forgotten completely to mention that a few days before the Introductions Readings in The Irish Writers Centre, Poetry Ireland got in touch with those of us who were doing the reading on the last Introductions night and asked if we would give permission to be recorded for The Arts Show on RTE 1 Radio. Naturally, I gave permission but put it to the back of my mind as didn't want the extra strain of adding another 'first time' to the whole event...it wasn't a case of the whole evening being recorded, each of us had to go with the radio guy to a quiet room and read one poem on our own and be recorded. I read 'Signs' which was published in The Stinging Fly last Autumn. I'm not sure when the recordings will be on The Arts Show, if at all...I've checked the last two shows and there is no mention in the write up of the readings, if I hear anything I will mention it here.
