I live in a half-empty nest on Dublin’s northside. After selling the family business and thereby escaping the world of dentistry in 2022, I took creative writing classes. My first book ‘The Geneva Window’ is about beloved Irish stained glass artist Harry Clarke. I’m currently seeking a publisher and if I don’t find one I plan to publish it independently in 2026.
Recognition for ‘The Geneva Window’
- Runner-up, Irish Writers Centre Novel Fair 2025, an international competition for debut novels
- Top 100 out of almost 3,000 entries in the Bath Novel award 2025
- It won me a ‘Date With An Agent’ at the International Literature Festival in Dublin in May 2025. I could not attend on the day due to being on the other side of the world and had to give up my place.
