For almost a decade from 2010, experienced facilitators Fiona Keane (playwright & songwriter) & Fin Keegan (editor, writer and publisher) hosted workshop-style weekends of writing at Old Rectory Retreat, a tranquil environment on the Wild Atlantic Way. Using complex, well-considered prompts, we wrote, read and offer feedback in a stimulating, supportive and rigorous atmosphere over the course of four workshops with breaks for tasty lunches courtesy of Chef Roisin. These weekends were always productive, engaging and highly enjoyable. We wrote, read, listened and laughed.
