My Kinsale: An Anthology

By Words by Water

This is a Kinsale community project which sets out to record the stories, memories and opinions of residents and those with a special connection to our town. This project is an initiative of Words By Water, Kinsale's literary festival, now in its second year. We've decided to produce a print and electronic book this year, and to set up an ongoing archive of contributions online. It is important not to lose details of our local history, or the stories of those who move away. It is important to the cohesion of our community that we share our experiences of the town,
and My Kinsale aims to capture as much material as possible.
We are publishing My Kinsale in association with the Kinsale Chamber of Tourism and Business, in order to help reach the diaspora, those who regularly visit our town, and those who are planning to visit and would like to understand our ways a little before they arrive.
This first edition lays down the first layer of content for a cultural archive including photographic and written histories of Kinsale, its people and place, including creative and factual written work. It contains creative input from people of all ages, including short commentaries, stories, poems and historical information about Kinsale.
