Caroline Lynch won the Listowel Writers' Week Best Poetry Collection prize in 2007 and her first collection, Lost in the Gaeltacht, was published this year by Salmon Poetry.

Pete Mullineaux lives in Galway and is resident MC for the Cúirt Festival Poetry Grand Slam. Originally from Bristol, he was first published by Macmillan, aged 13 - then joined the UK performance poetry scene, winning the City of London Poetry/song contest along the way.

Susan Millar DuMars' first collection of poems, Big Pink Umbrella, was published by Salmon Poetry this year.

A mini-collection of her short stories, American Girls, was published by Lapwing in 2007. Susan and her husband Kevin Higgins organise the Over the Edge readings series in Galway.

This is the second in a series of monthly readings featuring three poets, held on Tuesday evenings in Galway City Museum. The next North Beach Poetry Nights' Slam returns on Monday 13 October in its new venue, The Crane Bar on Sea Road.

Admission is €5.
