After four great years, it’s with very mixed emotions that I leave my role with @MerrionPress. I’ve been so fortunate to work with a truly amazing list of authors and unbelievably talented colleagues/friends. I can’t thank Conor enough for letting me ride shotgun through it all!

[Patrick O'Donoghue @patch53]

@catsbennett @MerrionPress Ah thanks Caitriona, you’re very good. Have a lovely Christmas and talk to you soon! 🙂

[Patrick O'Donoghue @patch53]

* Barry’s Tea scene *

Anne: Ah Pa, sure that’s not what they wanted at all!

Me: Santa’ll bring them what they want … they’re all getting a shitload of books from me, again

I’ll tell you one thing, Cookie and I are going to get to the bottom of this who-knocked-the-Christmas-tree mystery if it’s the last thing we do!
