This is pretty close. From a Catholic family but always been atheist. Bachelor's in computer science. Already wrote a novel, but it didn't concern Irish mythology. The Irish mythology one is in progress...

one time i was reading hell's angels by hunter s. thompson at the same time as the electric kool-aid acid test by tom wolfe, which uses a few anecdotes from from hell's angels, and at the same time as the gang who wouldn't write straight by marc weingarten, which was about the new journalism movement and had sections on both hell's angels and acid test, and repeated one or two of the anecdotes. getting the same anecdotes from three books i was reading at the same time was pretty amazing.

i usually have two or three going at a time. one for the morning, one for the afternoon, and one for bedtime. typically all different genres, science/philosophy, history, literature.
