As soon as Nicola Lindsay started to write seriously, she discovered that she loved reading her work out loud, either in front of an audience, in a recording studio or live on the radio.

These performances have included slots on RTE 1 Sunday Miscellany, Anna Livia / Dublin City FM, Lyric FM, BBC Cambridge, the Gerry Ryan Show and East Coast Radio.

From the back cover:

“Five Minute Dips is a collection of prose and poetry by Nicola Lindsay.  Nearly all of the pieces included were read and broadcast by the author on RTE Radio 1’s popular Sunday Miscellany programme.

Nicola Lindsay’s life has involved plenty of travel and a large range of jobs from modelling to nursing to growing plants for sale. She has acted on stage and in film and has always enjoyed working with a wide variety of people and experiencing the life-style and customs of different countries, many of which are described with affection and humour in this book.

The author observes the world in an often anarchic and refreshingly novel way.”
