Niall Crowley works for a society rooted in equality and dignity, a lifelong and passionate engagement. These issues find expression in his more creative writing, but it is place that is found at the heart of many of his stories. Place is west Cork in Ireland, with all its beauty and quirks, its history and character. His stories have found encouragement and a welcome home in Spillwords Press. He has also been published in CafeLit, The Galway Review, and Pure Slush. His stories have been shortlisted in each of the last three years by the ‘From the Well’ competition. His writing home is a group of writers in Cork that inspire, critique, tease, and teach to good effect. As time and years flash by, he is ever more determined to carve out time for writing. There are so many stories to be told.
