I regularly give creative writing workshops at literary festivals and writers’ weekends. Past festivals include: the Totally Teen Festival (South Dublin County Libraries), the Kilkenny Writers’ Weekend, the Cashel Arts Festival, the Mountains to Sea festival, Listowel Writers’ Week, and the Waterford Writers’ Weekend. If interested in getting me to deliver a workshop, please get in touch. I have also spoken at conferences on writing, children’s & YA fiction, and creative writing for gifted students.
I teach regularly at the Big Smoke Writing Factory and CTYI.
Hi Claire,
Im looking to enroll my daughter in a creative writing class. She is 9 going on 10.
I was looking on inkwells page and came across your website, im aware you do the summercamp.
However i was looking on your site and didn’t see a kids course or a weekly class for kids.

Hi Claire. My name is Jake. I’m new to wordpress so please forgive any…newness mistakes. I just scrolled by your page and noticed i almost took up a course in the big smoke writting factory, and also almost was present when you were doing the kilkenny writers weekend. i like your page, your taste in TV and tea. I would be (very vaguely) classed as a young reader and cannot wait to get a chance to read some of your stuff.
Hi Jake! Despite the newness you don’t seem to have broken the internet just yet… yay! Always lovely to encounter fellow tea junkies!
