Where'd she learn Irish?
[edit]If she's from a county with no Gaeltacht, went to an English-speaking school and university, then moved to England, can someone add some info about how she became an award-winning writer in the Irish language?
Anyone know where her parents were from?

- As someone who seemingly did all her schooling through English, how did she manage to learn such a high standard of Irish?
- What type of Irish does she speak? Donegal, Connacht, Munster, or school Irish (i.e. mix, or no-preference Irish)?
