Oran Ryan is Dublin novelist,, playwright, poet and screenwriter. In 2008
he won an Arts Council Bursary award for his project New Order from Zero.
Oran's first published novel, The Death of Finn is a love story and a story of
friendship. Ten Short Novels by Arthur Kruger is Oran Ryan's second novel.
This novel circumvents the natural order of novel writing as it is written in a
cubistic format and the series of short novels contained within the novel are
written by the hero of the novel himself, rather than the real-life author. Oran
has just completed a further novel One Inch Punch. In 2009 Oran’s play Don
Quixote has been Promoted was produced at the Ranelagh Arts Festival and

Oran’s story The Dublin Book Club has been included in Dublin: Ten Stories
One Destination, by the Irish Writers Exchange.

Anne Tannam was born in 1966 in Dublin, one of four children. Brought up
on a diet of books. Went to college, became a teacher, got married, had
four children. Juggled parenthood with part time work and ran around like a
headless chicken for a few years. Got a diploma in life coaching, learned to
stop for a while and figure out how I wanted to live. Began writing. Continued
to juggle but less frantically. Kept writing, loved writing, wrote a book. Had the
time of my life. Coached others who wanted to have the time of their life. Not
the end. Anne has just published her first poetry collection Take This Life
