Sorry Jessica

no news on scholarships, although perhaps some of the 
academics might have more information.

The Irish Poetry journals you should check out include Poetry 
Ireland Review (details at www.poetryireland.ie), Metre, Cyphers, 
The Shop, The Stinging Fly - We have links to some of these on 
our site, and the Irish Writers Centre (iwc@iol.ie) should have more 
information.

Don't be daunted by the numbers game, by the way - if the course 
is for you, it's for you.

good luck with it

Nessa
