This is a local competition for writers from Kildare or otherwise within a 15 mile radius approx from Newbridge.
Details: e.f,keane@gmail.com
Sounds a bit restrictive, Eileen. Doesn't reach Maynooth or Clane. Just about makes Naas.
Its anywhere in Kildare- and then otherwise within approx 15 k of Newbridge. Some areas of Wicklow are pretty close.
