A pleasure to feature in yesterdays @IrishTimes Online, with a piece on The Scribes of March: in praise of writers’ groups. Along with my own short story: Ansel Adrift irishtimes.com/culture/books/…

@VictoriaCoren Also @VictoriaCoren another Irish proverb similar in theme goes like this: 'Listen to the sound of the river and you will catch the trout.' Less fun for the trout, but proverbs can be cruel like that!

@VictoriaCoren Have heard hens 'cluck' and 'the clucking hen' ... though not this. Also a saying in Ireland with similar meaning ... 'the quiet pig gets the grain.' Happy anniversary

Look, I’m not going to have a row with my husband on our wedding anniversary of all days. But, BIZARRELY, he had never before heard the expression “It’s not the hen that cackles most that lays the largest egg”. He’s just laughing incredulously and implying I made it up.
