Short Story Podcast

Neil Tully, Louise Cole and Donal Conaty

18 January 2021
30 mins

The winners of the inaugural Dock/ Reading Room Short Story Competition came into our performance space in December and we recorded them reading from their winning stories. We are delighted to present them here in podcast form for you all to enjoy.

Winner Neil Tully; The Road was Full of Mud

The Road Was Full of Mud was inspired by the west of Ireland countryside on commutes to Boyle and the idea that common ground can almost always be found in the bigger picture, however deep our differences may seem.

Runner up: Louise Cole; When the Tide Turns

Louise's story was inspired by a walk on the beach at Strandhill in County Sligo, where she often spends time observing people.

Runner up: Donal Conaty; A Man Does Nothing Meets No One

Donal's story draws on a general tendency he has in his writing to explore the deterioration of the self in the world we live in
