@murphyslawyer she's a delight. I remember buying and reading her novels when I was just starting secondary school.

@murphyslawyer that is a lovely interview! Weird short paragraphs, mind?

@Susan_calvin @murphyslawyer the Dublin Inquirer print edition is tabloid size, and most stories are at least a full 3-columns-of-text page. The formatting breaks up the text and makes it more readable on the page - to me, at least!
