Dear list
Given that I'm sure Chris Neenan would be far too modest to post
this himself, I'm just alerting you to the news that he's been chosen
as a finalist in a New York poetry competition - the winning poem
being read out at an event in Carnegie Hall! See details below.
There you go - we give you only the best in Electric Acorn
and Dublin Writers Workshop online!
