I have two books out at the moment: GALWAY BAY FOLK TALES has just been published by The History Press Ireland. As well as local folk tales, saints lives, myths and urban legends the narrative weaves in history, philosophy and archaeology.The result is a fast paced book filled with magic and adventures that covers a period of time from the birth of the universe right up to post Celtic Tiger Ireland. It is illustrated by Marina Wild TRANSFORMATION, published by Dark Continents Publishing, Inc.. Set in modern Galway, this book begins as a passionate love story. However, terrible creature from Irish folklore, a pooka, threatens the lovers and all that are close to them. The book has earned great reviews including: "a dark, supernatural story that manages to make you cry, laugh and scare you to bits." - Galway City Tribune "rising tension leading to a truly terrifying ending" - Our Books Reviews "Has a backbone of sincere emotion and sinister darkness" - Wartooth Ebooks and Reviews "Poetic, mysterious and moving." - The European Reader

Spring 1832: Donegal, north west Ireland Coll Coyle wakes to a blood dawn and a day he does not want to face. The young father stands to lose everything on account of the cruel intentions of his landowner’s heedless son. Although reluctant, Coll sets out to confront his trouble. And so begins his fall from the rain-soaked, cloud-swirling Eden, and a pursuit across the wild bog lands of Donegal. Behind him is John Faller – a man who has vowed to hunt Coll to the ends of the earth – in a pursuit that will stretch to an epic voyage across the Atlantic, and to greater tragedy in the new American frontier. Red Sky in Morning is a dark tale of oppression bathed in sparkling, unconstrained imagery. A compassionate and sensitive exploration of the merciless side of man and the indifference of nature, it is both a mesmerizing feat of imagination and a landmark piece of fiction.

Oh Bidda Lort Harry! “Alri Saaaaaan! Oh Bidda Lort Harry deeese Rissoles are quare good lad! I was rotten drunk down d’aarbor when some e-Git started on me, so I tolt him dat his ma was dog rough but she had a fine set of Larries all the same. He was raygin’, you should have seen the head on him. He said he was going to break me face, so I hit him a box and I kicked the heart and soul out of him after. That’ll learn de girl’s blouse a lesson he’ll never forget like lad!” If you can read the above paragraph, and understand it, then you are probably Wexican. If not, it has been carefully translated for you as follows… “How are you my friend… Oh my goodness, these deep fried battered herby potato balls are extremely tasty my good fellow. I was beyond inebriated down on the harbour when some intellectually challenged person started abusing me verbally, so I told him that his mother was very ugly indeed but she had very nice breasts to make up for it. He was extremely annoyed with me, his face said it all. He told me he was going to inflict physical harm on my countenance, so I gave him a punch and I continued beating on him indefinitely. That will teach the feeble excuse
