Creative Ireland Supporting Literary Development in Roscommon

Creative Ireland funding in 2019 and in 2023 was put to great use to publish two anthologies of Roscommon Writing. 

New Roscommon Writing 2014-2018 and a word in your ear-Roscommon New Writing Anthology 2019-23 were both edited by Gerry Boland who has tirelessly supported the Roscommon Arts Office in its endeavours to promote, develop and grow the literary scene in the County. 

The anthologies are a wonderful insight into the talent of the writers we have in County Roscommon and have been compiled from submissions to and winners of the Roscommon New Writing Awards, Mentorship Programme, and Autumn Leaves Broadsheet of ficton and poetry.
