Postgraduate Creative Writing Menu

Susan Liddy

I'm Susan Liddy and have just started a PhD in Creative Writing (Scriptwriting) with Jayne Steel. I live and work in Limerick, Ireland, where I teach scriptwriting to undergraduate and postgraduate Media and Communciation students in Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick. My postgraduate study has ranged from a Graduate Diploma in Womens Studies to a reseach MA on women's magazines from the University of Limerick to, more recently, an MA in Scriptwriting from the National University of Ireland, Galway. When I finally stopped running away from creative writing, I felt an enormous relief: I was home! Over the last few years I have produced a few small television documentaries and written a feature length script, 'Curious' which has received development funding from the Irish Film Board. It is currently in further development with Blinder Films, Dublin. I'm both excited and nervous at the prospect of the work ahead but delighted to have this opportunity to immerse myself in a subject I find exhilarating! This screenplay I'm writing (working title 'Webcam Girls') follows the emotional and sexual journey of a young woman and her aunt, when they are thrown together unexpectedly.
