About Me (2011)

As a child I was always captivated by stories. Words can convey a deep magic that transports us to fascinating places and settings in time. So naturally once I was old enough to figure out the complex task of using a pen, along with all the accompanying aspects of writing such as spelling, grammar and of course handwriting, I began to compose my own stories. Time passed on and I found my passion for writing constantly growing. And now as a 19-year-old student I find myself in a multimedia course with little to show for my passion for writing but a few online published film reviews, a neglected blog and a personal writing journal filled with incomplete stories and compositions. And so I’ve decided to start this new blog. Hopefully this will make up for my recent literary drought.

My name is Keelan Foley and I am a multimedia student at the Institute of Technology Tralee. I have vast experience in the areas of music and film. I am a film maker who has produced short films. I also have experienced music production projects through my studies. I have a keen interest in the area artistic criticism surrounding film and music and so I have decided to share my knowledge and passion for these subjects. Please feel free to get involved, only through discussion and debate can something be truly analysed.

  87. Great meeting you via the web, Keelan. I appreciate your visiting my blog. It’s only been up about two weeks, so I’m still feeling my way around it. I have been writing since the typewriter days, so that sort of tells you how old I am (I’m 57-years-young). Most everything I’ve had published are articles. It took me a long time before I found publication on a consistent basis. But stick with it, keep studying and practicing your craft, and above and beyond everything else — don’t quit. I have discovered that persistence is the single most important trait writers need if they want success, and I define success as getting published, The size of the publication and the pay isn’t what’s important at first. What writers need first are bylines. The bigger bylines and money will then eventually come. Stay with it!

  88. First Keelan, thanks for visiting ifeck.com…it’s just a bit of fun. As for the rest, I won’t tell you to stick with the writing, or with any form of expression. From reading your “about” it sounds like you’ll never have the choice to stop…and there will always be dry spells…it doesn’t mean those periods don’t have value… and you’re right just to write about anything when such times come.

    I’ve been a writer all my life, though I’ve had lots of different job titles. At the heart of all of them has been an ability with words and a steady voice. But it’s always been through the exploration of the concrete world, and not myself, that my voice has developed and the means by which I’ve come to understand who I am, and how I can best speak about the world, how I can best be in it. It’s a peculiar contradiction that so much of what we do is from and about our being with others, and yet so frequently when we create we do it alone. So don’t be afraid of the dark places. Just don’t choose to live there.

  106. Always great to make the acquaintance of a fellow writer. I’m much the same in that I began writing as soon as I could figure it all out too and I’m 19 with not a lot to show for it. However, I aim to change that and am currently working on trying to get published.

    Lookin forward to keepin up with you, especially since you’re one of (now) three writers I know on my side of the globe haha. P:

    1. Hey thanks for visiting my blog. Its always good to hear from other people in the same boat. Best of luck with getting your work published, I look forward to seeing how you get on. For me I’ll be happy if my future revolves around writing, in one way or another. But as all know, that’s not going to happen by itself.

    1. Thank you for reading my blog. I do try to write at more regular intervals. But I often find that there is either a lack time or lack of drive to write daily.

  122. Hey Keelan,

    I really appreciate you having a look at my blog. I am the Publicist for Sirens Call Publications and as I was reading your About section, I began to wonder if you would be interested in becoming a host for a blog tour for an author. If you are interested, send me an email at Kalla@SirensCallPublications.com and I will fill you in on the specifics. I really do think that this would be a way for you to add new content to your blog. Let me know,

    Kalla
