Coffee and chat with a panel of hometown writers in a relaxed, informal setting. Short presentations by Tom Murphy, Paddy McGuinness, Magdalen O’Connell, Noel Campbell and James Laffey, followed by lively banter and free flowing audience input. Contrarian opinions especially welcome. More laid-back than academic, with maybe even a song or two about old Castlebar! Hosted by John Healy.
