In fact the secret is so secret you have to read the book to find out what it is.

Jacinta says if you want to write you have to read.  So, she includes a selection of her own award winning short stories at the back of the book. The powerful story “Way to Go, Dad!” about divorce and the fall out. This story was broadcast on RTE as part of the Francis McManus Awards. “Skin Deep”, a powerful story of black humour on the delicate subject of cancer, was published in a collection of short stories by Poolbeg Publishing, Thirty and Fabulous.
