Welcome to this week's episode of Ireland Creates the podcast about Irish storytellers.

I hope you are safe and well as you tune into this week's episode. If this is your first time listening, thank you for joining us. Each week I speak with creatives based here in Ireland or with a connection to Ireland about their lives, their creative practice and what storytelling means to them.

On this week's episode, I speak to award-winning writer Olivia Fitzsimons who is launching her debut novel The Quiet Whispers Never Stop this week. We talk about growing up in Northern Ireland, what it's like to live as a creative in Ireland today and what storytelling means to her. You can order Olivia's book here or pop into your local bookshop and pick up a copy.
