KFM Radio Interview


 I'll be chatting to Celine Garvey on her show Artyfacts at around 9pm tonight on KFM (97.6 fm & 97.3fm) - talking about the Hennessy Literary Awards and reading a short extract from my novel The Herbalist. (My reading of Kitty will be replayed this coming Sat morning at around ten a.m.)

Hi Niamh,
Just saw your poem "kitty" in the Irish Independant - weekend review. And I loved it. I am wondering where one would start to publish ones poetry and would I need to copy right it first. I'm from near Athy too, and would appreciate any help thanks..

Hi Niamh
I sadly missed your Artyfacts interview on Friday night...& despite trying for a podcast on the website, I couldn't see anything for the programme. If you get a chance to insert a link with it (presuming Celine sends you a recording) I would love to hear it...especially your reading of "The Herbalist"
Well done on all your achievements...life must be beautifully hectic right now!

Thanks, glad you liked the poem:) You dont need to copyright before you publish as far as I know, and if you are thinking of publishing your poetry there are some great magazines around - The SHop, The Stinging Fly, Boyne Berries, The Moth, Southword, Crannog...I posted a blogpost listing the irish magazines and Taniawrites has a blogpsot of uk and irish, so if you google either you should get some results. And good luck:)
