Damien Donnelly

Hello listeners,
         I'm a Dublin born Irishman who took off for Paris at 22 with a degree in Fashion design and not a word of French. Since then I’ve lived in London and Amsterdam but returned to Paris finally at 40.  I’ve been writing since before I could crawl, poetry mostly, but occasionally write short stories while also working on a fictional novel. My 1st short story was published in the book ‘Second Chance’, from Original Writing in 2015, a 2nd by The Fable Online, followed by a horror story in ‘Body Horror Anthology’ from Gehenna and Hinnom Publishing. My poetry has been featured in Firefly zine, Scribe Base zine and ‘Nous Sommes Paris’ from Eyewear Publishing. Barren Magazine online and The Runt Magazine.  
     I've recently branched out into Spoken Word and have used Soundcloud and now You Tube to bring a deeper layer of understanding to my poetry.
