Overjoyed to be the featured New Irish Writer in @ReviewIndo today. And, I'm told, on its 55th Anniversary.

My huge thanks to Ciaran Carty and Emily Mason.

I'd a *ball* with wonderful Editor Catherine Harper whilst writing for her dazzling book: bloodied wedding dresses; embodying Michael Collins in his great-coat and banshee cloaks fluttering in the moonlight. Irish literature is significantly textured and tattered.

Out Now.

A new digital project housed online @KingsCollegeLon makes Virginia Woolf’s 67 Reading Notebooks available for free. Now Woolf scholars don’t have to travel to three archives to see them. https://t.co/PEcPrb7GgG #VirginiaWoolf #BrendaSilver

Such a restorative and immersive day @NGIreland with threadstories. A truly meaningful, creative space. Thanks to Sarah for guiding us through the Zurich Portrait Prize 2023 shortlist for inspiration.

With great glee I'm writing about the Promethean cloak of #StBrigid this evening for a very exciting project. A garment thats been hanging in my imagination for years.

The whole nation mourns. We're so sad for Sinead's family, but most especially for our wonderful colleague Joseph O'Connor. Go Raibh Suaimhneas Síoraí Uirthi #RIPSineadOConnor

Let's create a thread of lines of poetry that have changed our lives. Maybe this will be something people can carry around and scroll through to find what they need. 🖤

I'll start with Derek Walcott's final line from "Love After Love": "Sit. Feast on your life."

[Dr Rachel Hynes @Rachelannahynes]

I'm just over the moon to be April's forthcoming featured New Irish Writer in the weekend review supplement of The Irish Independent. My short story 'In the Hollow of a Wave' will be published there. Huge thanks to Editor Ciaran Carty. 💫

[Dr Rachel Hynes @Rachelannahynes]

Its always been the passion flowers for me.

@conorsmurf 'Reading for pleasure': there's something terribly clinical and saccharine about that term, agreed. Meaningful reading cultures are complex and sensitive environments and they can be nurtured.

[Dr Rachel Hynes @Rachelannahynes]

Just listened back to relish a really gorgeous radio programme! The music, atmosphere and story excerpts...
Such a pleasure to be involved and a huge honour to be shortlisted 📻
