The April 2016 'On The Nail' Literary Gathering takes place on Tuesday 5 April 2016 at The Buttery in Bedford Row, Limerick, starting at 8pm, with this month guests poet Daragh Bradish and poet and author Gerry Hanberry.

Daragh Bradish was born and raised in Terenure, Dublin. He spent his formative years in Bray, County Wicklow. Studied fine arts and history in TCD. In recent years he has spent a great deal of time in Liscannor, County Clare. Coming late to seriously writing, his first published poem was in Revival #18. He has since been published in journals in Ireland, UK and in Europe. Easter in March is first collection and is published by Liberty Press.

Daragh has coordinated the Soundings for Simon readings to raise funds for Dublin Simon each year since 2010.

Gerry Hanberry has published four collections of poetry to date and also a biography of the Wilde family, More Lives Than One - The Remarkable Wilde Family Through the Generations (Collins Press, 2011). His most recent poetry collection is 'What Our Shoes Say About Us' published by Salmon Poetry in July 2014. This follows the collection 'At Grattan Road' published by Salmon Poetry in 2009. Paul Perry, reviewing the collection 'At Grattan Road' for the Irish Times, said it was "bursting at the seams with fine poems". Hanberry's first collection, Rough Night, was published in 2002 by Stonebridge Publications, Wales. This was followed in 2005 by Something Like Lovers, also from Stonebridge Publications. In summer 2004 Hanberry won the Brendan Kennelly/Sunday Tribune Poetry Award.

Everyone is invited to take part in the open-mic after the main event, poets, storytellers, musicians and writers . Even if you don't write you are welcome to bring something along to read. The night begins at 8.00pm and admission is free. So join us on the night and make this event something special.
