Sometimes Adults Seem As Though They Have

I'm Not Recognised That Much. I'm Just A Bald Man In Glasses And There's A Rash Of Them In Dublin. It'd Be Different If I Had A Mohican.

I Write Short Stories When A Little Idea Occurs To Me, That I Know Isn't A Part Of A Novel That Will Stand By Itself And Should Be Concentrated.

It's A Big Con Job. We Have Sold The Myth Of Dublin As A Sexy Place Incredibly Well; Because It Is A Dreary Little Dump Most Of The Time.

When I Was Growing Up, The Exam System Didn't Allow You To Write Fiction, So You Never Did.

No Matter How Close To Personal Experience A Story Might Be, Inevitably You Are Going To Get To A Part That Isn't Yours And, Actually, Whether It Happened Or Not Becomes Irrelevant. It Is All About Choosing The Right Words.
