Beginner’s pluck: Charity administrator Caragh Maxwell

 'I loved 'Sugartown' for its rawness, its assured writing, and its empathetic characters. Caragh Maxwell is a writer to watch'

Caragh Maxwell has been published in 'The Irish Times', and 'The Cormorant', among other publications.

Caragh was reading the RTÉ Guide aged two-and-a-half.

“I was a voracious reader and a big storyteller,” she says. “I wasn’t sporty, and I got my first medal in primary school for a ‘write a book’ competition.”
