Boyne Readings/ James Linnane

Boyne Readings/James Linnane

The guest reader at the next open mic session in the Knightsbridge Village Hall on Thursday the 28th of April will be James Linnane. A member of both "The Boyne Writers' Group" and "The Meath Writers' Circle", James has published two books to date, and his most recent offering "The Life And Times Of A Gotcha" is an hilarious  account of his days spent working as a security guard on the industrial sites and building complexes around the greater Dublin area. Launched recently at the Coachman's Pub in Ballivor there are sure to be copies available on the night and more information about the book can be found at http://www.theauthorsfriend.com/ or if you scroll back a page or two on this site. It also got a mention on Michael Farry's blog a while back. James writes poetry as well and one of his poems is included in the latest copy of the Boyne Berries literary magazine. Admission is €5 Euro with tea and biscuits served afterwards.
