Paddy Creedon
Born on Tarbert's Main Street, overlooking the wonderful Shannon Estuary, where in 1966 as a young teenager he watched England win the World Cup during his first summer job, his club win the North Kerry minor championship, went dancing to the orchestral tunes of Maurice Mulcahy in BallyB on a Sunday night for the first time. Life was very good. In his early 20's he took a drink and seven years later the drink had taken the man until he himself got into recovery. His educational path took him from his native St. Ita's to St. Jarlaths in Tuam, much later to the Irish Management Institute (IMI) in Dublin and then as a very mature student to the Vlerick Business School in Leuven (Belgium). In more recent years he has chased down his writing ambitions and now is often found lost in the fascinating world of creative writing. He is a dedicated follower of everything Kerry and 'Mind the View' is his first book of poems. When Robert Browning said that “God is the Perfect Poet” Paddy believes he meant that there is room at the table of creativity for all of us.
