Joe McKiernan on the Radio

This weekend, the lovely Joe McKiernan is taking the steering wheel of the Scrapbook ship. He's a Lucan writer (it is a local show for local people after all!!!), and it's his second appearance, after which he'll be second only to Oub in Sunday Scrapbook frequency... you'll remember him from his show on the theme of Travel last year, this time round he's taking the theme of "Seize the Day"

Joe was born in Walkinstown, but moved to Lucan 10 years ago, he has worked as a software developer all his working life, and has travelled - living in England, Holland and Australia. He's been writing since 2001 and was one of the founding members of the illustrious Lucan writers group. He has written short stories, memoir and a novel, and much of his writing draws on his experiences while travelling. Asides from that he has an interest in writing science fiction and fantasy. Joe is just into his first week of a full time arts degree in UCD which he has just begun.


You can listen to the show from the usual link on the right there for Liffey Sound, or catch up on the very fine radio archives... (does anyone out there know anything about itunes by the way - or setting up an rss so that I can do a proper podcasty thingy?)
Anyway Joe's show will go out at the grabbing life by the scruff of the neck time of 4pm on Sunday. Join us then, seize the day, why not? Why not indeed,
