Derbhile Dromey page

Derbhile Dromey is the author of the Authortrek short story Dishabille.

Derbhile Dromey writes: “I live in Waterford, in the scenic south-east corner of Ireland. I am in thrall to the wonder of words. I believe my writing career began when I created tribes out of stones on a windswept beach and a book is rarely out of my hands. When I'm not writing, I'm listening to loud, thumping music, giving witty speeches at my local branch of Toastmasters, a public speaking organisation, or walking the beach. I am not a brooding, solitary writer, brooding in an ivory tower. I write in the park, or while waiting for a bus, creating a bubble of silence for myself in the midst of chaos.

Writing fills every crevice of my life. I write professionally for a living and my ramblings have appeared in outlets such as The Irish Examiner and Writer's Forum. I am drawn to life's sensual delights and consider the tango scene in Scent of a Woman to be the epitome of sensuality and romance. In homage, I have written a sketch for my local drama group based on the films of Al Pacino. Inspiration for this story (Dishabille) came during a creative writing course run by the University of Maynooth, which I recently completed.

I believe in releasing myself from the shackles of inhibition. I milk a rich vein of humour, sing badly and dance strange dances. To write is to be different and I embrace that difference fully.”
