Padrika Tarrant

Attended Bridges' creative writing group today. Listened to my friend Paddy reading from her second novel 'Silver' (the first, 'The Knife Drawer' is in the hands of a top literary agent, and the manuscript is currently being viewed by several publishing houses) I've always known she was capable of stringing a few words together, but today I felt I was in the presence of a unique literary talent. The closest music related comparison I can make is from when I first heard 'Sliver' by Nirvana, and realised just how good they were.
