Name:<\/strong> Ciara Geraghty (pronounced Keira as in Keira Knightly but with lower cheek bones\u2026)<\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong> Old enough to know better<\/p>\n

Where I live:<\/strong> Dublin.<\/p>\n

Hobbies:<\/strong> Anything sea-related apart from sailing due to precarious relationship with motion. Playing my violin (more enthusiasm than flair), reading cookbooks, singing in the shower using a tube of shower-gel as microphone, cute dog videos, the open road, teapots, pens & post-its.<\/p>\n

Pet Hates:<\/strong> Queuing, DIY, jellyfish, Golden Delicious apples, Visa bills, automated answering services, coffee cake, parallel parking, on-hold music, pulses (not the biological kind, more the peas, beans and lentils variety), map-reading, packing, filing, changing the strings on my violin.<\/p>\n

Most Likely to Say:<\/strong> I\u2019m really sorry about your picnic, my dog just smelled the sausages and\u2026.<\/p>\n

Least Likely to Say:<\/strong> I\u2019m too full for dessert.<\/p>\n

Favourite food:<\/strong> My mother\u2019s apple tart.<\/p>\n

Favourite kids\u2019 book:<\/strong> Charlotte\u2019s Web by E.B. White<\/p>\n

Favourite writing manual:<\/strong> Bird by Bird, by Anne Lamott<\/p>\n

If I wasn\u2019t a writer, I\u2019d be:<\/strong> A train driver. Or a singer in a glam-rock band. Or a waitress in one of those NYC diners where I\u2019d roar the specials at customers and come at them with the coffee pot. I\u2019d say, \u2018caw-fee\u2019 like a proper New Yorker.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
