Hannah Bagnell on the Radio

Our Christmas Special Guest on the Sunday Scrapbook is Dublin born writer Hannah Bagnell. It's a family time of year, so I'm delighted to have my aunt and godmother joining me in studio. She was born and reared in dublin and has been writing since her childhood - her first big success being the winning of an RTE contest with her short story about an ostrich. She left her job in the food industry to move to Bath in 1990 to study English, and creative writing, she now works in student services in Bath Spa University and is part of an intimate writers group over there who meet regularly to discuss reading, writing, and life in general.
It was a visit to Hannah a couple of years back and discussing her membership of that group that kind of caused me to go looking for Lucan Writers Group, so I've alot to thank her for.
Hannah's theme is life, death and survival.

Niamh, I'm gonna listen in one day. Thank God you do a weekly show; the right day, when nothing else is happening, must come along SOON. On the M6, M1 and M25 tomorrow and I don't think we'll be getting Liffey Sound on the road..
