My Name is William Snagpock


My name is William Snagpock. I've decided that the time has come for me to pass on what I've learnt from life, and I intend to do this in the form of fiction. I hope this blog will be beneficial both to myself and to both of my readers. I want to leave my mark on the world, just like a dog leaves his mark on the wheel of a car.


The characters I write about are entirely fictional, but personal experience has played an important part in their formation. I'm a man of the world, and that world got much bigger when I overcame my fear of flying and of the devil. I've nearly been to parties in mansions. I've played roulette with almost-beautiful women in casinos. I've played Russian Roulette in a shack in Carlow. I've played Carlow tennis with a pig in Russia. Of course, my imagination has had to fill in a lot of the gaps, but I've yet to come across a gap that's too big for my mind.
