A Girl's Writing Is Never Done (c) Shauna Gilligan 2026
I’m delighted to return to the Irish Writers Centre in person to present a follow-on workshop to my January offering on Characterisation. Join me on 9th May 2pm to 5pm! To book online click here or email the Irish Writers Centre info@irishwriterscentre.ie
I am delighted to announce that I will be facilitating a pair of workshops in the gorgeous Irish Writers Centre from 10am until 3pm on Saturday, 7 February 2026 (with an hour for lunch). (Update: Event now booked out) There are only a couple of places left so if you are interested in working with me for a day of close reading, playful writing, guided exercises and discussion – featuring poetry and prose – please head over to the booking page of the Irish Writers Centre. I’d love to see you there.
Following the success of the WEB anthology Tearing Stripes off Zebras (edited by Nessa O’Mahony and published by Arlen House), DLR and Ballyogan Libraries will host some members of the WEB Women’s Writing Group in an 8-week programme of creative writing workshops exploring memoir, the craft of writing, the Irish language, poetry, prose.
I’m delighted to be giving a workshop “The Domestic in Poetry and Prose” in Ballyogan Library on September 11th. All Welcome!
