So, I did a recording of my story Eskragh for a friend, and then I thought about putting it up here. And then I didn’t. But since this seems to be an unofficial Irish-themed week on the blog and since I haven’t done this sort of thing before – what the hell.

This isn’t the most professionally recorded thing ever placed on the internet. And you’ll have to put up with both my accent and my slightly croaky voice making the whole thing more-or-less unintelligible but if you want to listen to me mangling my own story – rated (preposterously) as one of the best pieces of short fiction published last year by Tangent Online – then here’s your chance.
