I'm happy to say that a couple of weeks ago I signed the contract for the publication of my debut story collection, title to be announced soon. This will be published by Seren Books next year. See more about Seren here: http://www.serenbooks.com/ The day I received the Seren contract was a particularly surreal one. For also in post that day arrived a copy of a record contract (no less) for the inclusion of a song I had co-written in the 80s (when I was all of fifteen-years old) on a soon-to-be-released album of Irish Electronica. Back in the day, I was in a band called Choice who had some success and also a bit of a cult following. At the time we were very influenced by British and German electronica. That song, called Always in Danger , will now be released (after all this time!) on Finders Keepers Records in July. I'll put it on You Tube round about then.
