CastleComer Writer’s Festival!

All roads lead to Castlecomer on the last weekend of September, for the first ever Writer’s Festival to be held in the town. It will take place from the 26th – 28th September 2008.

We have attracted a number of high profile writers, such as Sheila O’Flanagan, Anita Notaro, and Martina Reilly to attend and give workshops.

It will be an all inclusive Festival and will have something of interest for all ages.

There will be fireworks, a bouncy castle, face painting,

a book sale in the Library and much more on offer in various venues.

The weekend will see the publication of a book of short stories “By the blue gate- a collection of stories from Castlecomer” by the writer’s group, and will also include stories from Primary School children from the area. The book will be on sale in the Library, Castlecomer bookshop; Khan’s & Stone House books.

A Play which was also written by the group called “Clerical Errors” will be staged on Friday & Saturday night in the Hall.

The writing workshops will be free, and will cover such subjects as How to write a bestseller, Journalism, Memoir writing, and Crime Writing.

For further information, on all aspects of the Festival, call into the Library or ring 4440561.This promises to be a great weekend in the town.

City library

We have spent the past year refurbishing and restocking our children’s room. Over €6000 has been spent on new stock for 0-5 year olds. The new readers (similar to those used in schools), new

storybooks, board books, Irish books, etc. are proving very popular with children. This has led to an increase in the number of families coming in and the number of books being taken home. Children under 14 can join free of charge and can borrow up to 6 books. We welcome pre-booked visits from creches, playschools, and schools also. Anyone wishing to book in should contact Aisling Kelly on 056 7794174 or email [email protected].
