A Girl's Writing Is Never Done (c) Shauna Gilligan 2026
I was delighted to be featured in Episode 13 of Christine Schnell’s Unlock Your Magic Podcast. Hear us chat about trying to slow down, the changing nature of authenticity and finding joy. Listen here.
And while you’re there, have a listen to the other chats Christine has about being End of Life Doula and Caregiver, technology in our lives, the medicine of darkness, synchronicities …and more!
Thanks, Christina for the wonderful, curious quesitons!
I’m delighted to have a short story “Like a Hook” in the Spring 2023 Issue of Crannóg (Issue 58), it’s one of ten short stories in this issue. It’s a beautiful publication, with stunning art work, and a wonderful selection of fine poetry and prose. Brava to the editors. You can purchase Crannóg here. I was very disappointed not to be able to make the launch which was held in the Crane Bar, Friday 31st March. With thanks to the editors for accepting my work!
I am delighted to be running a series of seven linked creative writing workshops focusing on Brigid in Kildare Town Library from February to October 2023. Writing Our Way To Brigit/Brigid invites participants to explore, through writing and discussion, what Brigit/Brigid means to them. Participants will have the opportunity to read/perform their work as part of the Kildare Readers Festival in October (KRF 2023).
If you would like to join us for these events, please sign up here (Select “Free Event” and add all the dates into your order). Places are limited, and operate strictly on a first come, first served basis.
With thanks to Kildare Town Library, Brigid 1500 Arts Grant/Kildare County Council for supporting this project.
