Born in New York, Conor’s family moved home to the North-West of Ireland just in time for him to start school there. He lost his New York accent in two weeks.
As he grew up, Conor was always fascinated by stories in books, games, tv and film, and it wasn’t long before he began writing and telling his own stories. After many years of writing just for his own entertainment, Conor decided to start writing “for real” in 2016, and self-published his first novel, The Longest Night, in 2019.
Writing Community
Conor is very active on Twitter and through the hashtag #WritingCommunity was inspired to make connections to writers all over the world. He is a featured writer of QueerIndie.com, as well as a podcast host of Story of a Storyteller which is due to release season two in January 2021!
