About Me



I'm so glad you stopped by!

My name is Christy Dorrity. My family means everything to me and I love being a wife to my amazing husband, and stay at home mom to five awesome kiddos.

Reading, writing, cooking and Irish dancing make me happy. You will find a little of everything here.

I am a freelance writer and author. I write a blog about Irish dancing on IrishCentral.com, the leading Irish-American website. My articles have appeared in Feis America Magazine and DiddlyiMag. I use to write for my local newspaper, The Syracuse Islander, and I recently had an article accepted for the children's Friend Magazine.

I love to read books and review them. Because I love to cook, I found a way to combine reading with eating--I guess you could call it reating!  I enjoy matching recipes to the books I read, and then I blog about them both.

My Book Blogger Cookbooks are now available on Amazon.

The 2011 Book Blogger's Cookbook
The 2012 Book Blogger's Cookbook

If you are an author or blogger who would like to be involved with next year's cookbook, please fill out this form.

Currently I am working on a non-fiction book on Irish dancing, several picture books and a YA fantasy that's going through final drafts before I start querying it.

  1. Do I have a "reating" book for you!

    I’m looking for reviewers for my 4th book, “Scrambled,” a Susan Sleuth Cozy mystery (the first in a series) set on the east coast. “Scrambled” will be ready for release in September and I am looking for reviewers who are willing to read and review my book before publication.

    Susan believes that the grass is greener on the other side. Not that her current life is bad, necessarily; it’s just boring and lifeless, kind of like the old matted rug on her dining room floor. Susan thinks her marriage has just grown—well, old. Her husband, Bob, has gained tremendous weight and continues to gain, and his health suffers. She must work at a job she hates full-time to provide the little sustenance they have. He, on the other hand, works very little (because of his health) and prefers spending his days watching television or surfing the Internet. Besides, there’s her problem of not getting pregnant that can’t help but contribute to his unhappiness.

    Can Susan continue to live her life at the hotel knowing that she might be killed herself or imprisoned for life? Will she be able to find the real murderer with the help of the eccentric Ms. Martha Boaz?

    I would also be open to other opportunities available on your website for promotion.
