Liam Horan’s Espresso Shot of Thought
As part of my MA in Creative Writing Studies at University of Limerick (2023-2025), I was given the opportunity to take part in the college's Espresso Shot of Thought series. Thanks to Emily Cullen, the Meskell UL-Fifty Poet in Residence at the college, for inviting me to take part in the series. Special word of gratitude too to Elaine Kiely, Oonagh Grace and Karen Byrnes for their work in editing the final version. MORE ON THE CRAFT OF WRITING: See HERE. I'm adding to this on an ongoing basis.
Creative Facilitation by Liam Horan
In my creative facilitation work, I strive to ignite a spark in groups, helping writers discover and develop their voices. Ink & Imagination, an anthology written by students from Ballyhaunis Community School, is a project close to my heart. Working with these young writers was one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life, watching them explore everything from the warmth of family ties to the complexities of adolescence.
