I was very happy to see my short story ‘The Rabbit and the Moon’ published on the Honest Ulsterman’s website at the end of last month.

This story was shortlisted for the Colm Toibin International Short Story Award in 2020, and it tells the story of a woman dealing with a broken marriage, a child with autism, and her own struggle with depression. All too often the stresses on caregivers are overlooked, as the focus is on the person who needs care.

I wanted to highlight how difficult caregiving can be, and how we need to also care about the carers.
