Mouthing, Orla Mackey, Sharp-eyed and sharp-tongued, a multigenerational portrait of small-town life in Ireland from a refreshing new talent in literary fiction'A bittersweet love letter to small-town Irish life over several generations, in the vein of Elizabeth Strout’s Olive Kitteridge' Irish Times‘Full of disgrace, inherited trauma and family secrets. It will make you laugh - because if you didn't, you'd surely cry’ Aingeala Flannery‘A caustically witty novel for anyone who ever wondered what the neighbours are really up to behind closed doors’ Jan CarsonWelcome to Ballyrowan.This sleepy corner of rural Ireland may seem tranquil, but scratch the surface and you'll find a hotbed of gossip and intrigue - endless material for mouthing - and a town full of people only too happy to oblige in spreading the bad news.Narrated by several generations of villagers, Mouthing traces the fortunes of one small community from the mid-20th century to the early 21st, in a series of highly confessional and darkly hilarious monologues. The good people of Ballyrowan delight in twisting the knife, in tormenting one another, in perfecting the art of schadenfreude. And, it becomes clear, none of them are entirely reliable witnesses.As each character offers their version of 'the truth', upending our assumptions at every turn, we see how feuds are passed down through the generations, how families are estranged or reunited and fortunes made or lost, how strict social expectations loosen over decades (and how some things remain stubbornly unchanged). And how secret hopes and private sorrows, triumph and humiliation, pleasure and grief are all absorbed into the merciless chorus of mouthing.Mouthing is an acerbic, unsentimental love letter to rural Irish life, where everyone knows everyone else's business and everyone has an opinion on it - where 'community' is both a lifeboat and a life sentence. , Book2look: The state of the art online marketing tool for publishers and self-publishers: Make the point of discovery the point of sale.

Looking for something to get you in the spirit for spooky season? If you\'re a fan of artists like Edward Gorey, Stephen Gammell, and Richard Sala, and you love stories full of creepy, small-town secrets, check out my webcomic, Ninecrow! Here are the 31 first episodes I created during Inktober. Following her parents’ divorce, Amanda and her mom have moved to an isolated, dreary town in the middle of nowhere. Amanda can’t figure out what brought them there—it isn’t as if her mom has found a new job, or they have friends or family there. She\'d never even heard of the place before the sudden move. Amanda hates her new hometown—at first, just because it\'s run-down and boring. But the more she explores, the more she starts to believe there’s something seriously wrong here. Almost everyone she meets is old, and many are oddly disfigured. There are strange lights in the woods far above the town that no one else seems to see. And more than one girl around Amanda\'s age has gone missing.More info: ninecrowcomic.com | Instagram | Facebook | twitter.com | Etsy | patreon.com | webtoons.com
