Roddy Doyle helps Cork kids have a way with words
The renowned novelist and screenwriter, who wrote novels The Commitments, The Snapper and The Van which were later adapted for smash-hit movies, as well as several best-selling books for adults and children, and who also worked with Roy Keane on his latest memoir, The Second Half, launched his latest Fighting Words creative writing workshop at the city’s Graffiti Theatre.
Mr Doyle said while it is designed to help students develop their writing skills and explore their love of writing, he hopes it will also influence the way they think and how they look at life.
