| Name: | Claire Hennessy |
| Website: | www.clairehennessy.com |
| Location: | Dublin, Ireland |
| Birthdate: | 1986-02-24 |
| Bio: | "Each glanced surreptitiously at the other's reading matter. It was as good as a masonic handshake."
-- David Lodge, Small World
Claire writes (young adult fiction), reads (as much as she can), teaches (creative writing - she has no other marketable skills), does the studenty thing (History and English at TCD), drinks a lot of tea (self-explanatory), and occasionally blogs (here). Oooh, exciting.
(She usually doesn't talk in the third person, sorry about that.)
Bookish news:
Big Picture, published June 2008, a tale of many things but mostly what-happens-when-real-life-gets-in-the-way-of-plans, and also some musings on education, smart girls, cute boys, and what-do-you-want-to-be-when-you-grow-up. (See related posts.)
