    Hello All!

    I have a novel coming out in September called Gripped and am visiting Ireland from September 18th - September 29th. Is there any possibility that anyone here knows a bookstore owner or bar owner who would give me the chance to read at their establishment?

    Check out the opening to the book on Facebook, here, and get back to me with any questions. I'd LOVE the opportunity!

    Thanks in advance,

    Jason Donnelly

    Go to Gti or gmit, ask if there are any creative writing classes still being taught. Im sure any of those might be glad to have you. Or at least the person running them would know someplace for you to showcase your book. Good luck :)

    I have seen book readings advertised in, off the top of my head, Chapters on Parnell St, Eason on O'Connell St and I think, the Winding Stair on the Quays. No idea who/how to contact them to get a setup going, but firing off an email can't hurt?
    Good luck with the book anyway!

    Hodges Figgis, The Gutter Bookshop, Dubray on Grafton St. You can find the first two on Facebook and contact them there, not sure about the other.
