More Power(s) to Fiona
Kilcullen based writer Fiona Stevenson has had a story selected for publication from over 4,200 entries submitted to the Irish Times/Powers Short Stories Volume 2 collection.
It sells for €10 euro in all major bookshops and all of the profit goes to the Irish Hospice Foundation.
The Irish Times donated the cost of the printing, the writers gave their talent free. The competition asked for stories on the theme Celebrating What Truly Matters, and entrants obliged with tales of love and friendship and recession-beating moments. Participants were helped with advice from the late Maeve Binchy, Kevin Barry, Claire Kilroy and John Boyne.
Fiona has a deft hand in short fiction. Her story 'Hope' was shortlisted in the Anam Cara Short Fiction Competition on Writing.ie.
