So today I head to Listowel for teaching the short story, reading, yapping and, tonight, the Kerry Irish Novel of the Year Award prize-giving. Eek!! I haven't allowed myself to think about it much but now the nerves are well and truly kicking in. I may pull up to Listowel extremely chocolate-stained from agitated munching on the drive. Wish me luck!

Awards event. The Closet of Savage Mementos is on the shortlist
