An Anglo-Saxon Funeral

I am from Cornwall which means I speak funny and no-one can understand me, nor the entirely mad place that I come from. However, if I put it down in words then perhaps the story won�t get lost in translation. It took three years of sweat and tears to turn this hand into something legible for all to understand, perhaps even enjoy. The B.A. (Hons) Writing & Literature program focused my mind on the screenplay and the short story. I have written a feature length first episode of a TV series, and a short story. I also love interviewing people and finding out what makes them tick. I interviewed five Sligo artists/ entrepreneurs which was published in online magazine W/e (Wild Eden). I live in Leitrim and I play the banjo, so there.
