Lucy Caldwell
Based in Northern Ireland, Lucy is best known for her novels, stage plays, radio dramas and her two collections of short stories. Among her many (many!) awards are the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature, the Dylan Thomas Award, the Irish Writers’ and Screenwriters’ Guild Award, and the BBC National Short Story Award. In 2018, Lucy was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. You’d have to join a waiting list for her Faber Academy short story course, so we’re delighted she’s spending some time with us at Spread the Word Literary Festival! In this online conversation, Lucy will give an insight into her career and her writing techniques.
