Dermot is a Dublin-based poet, novelist and playwright who has been making a life as a writer since 1984. He has published a number of novels exploring contemporary Ireland, but also historical novels focused on Ireland in the 20th century. In 2020 he published his first short story collection, Secrets Never Told.
At the CCI, he will be completing the final drafts of a sequence of autobiographical poems also related to changes in Irish society, which he wishes to publish in late 2022. He also hopes to complete a play on PTSD in participants of the Irish War of Independence and Civil War.
