Just one day left.
This isn’t just my story — it’s for anyone who ever asked, “What if?”
And dared to answer, “Sure, why not.”
From Ireland to America. From fatherhood to reinvention.
What If? Sure, Why Not! launches July 23.

#WhatIfSureWhyNot

Two bags. One dog. No return flight.
I looked back just once before stepping into the unknown.
I didn’t know what the future held.
But I had to find out.
2 days to go.
What If? Sure, Why Not!
#MemoirInMotion #ImmigrationJourney #IrishAbroad #2DaysToGo

Three kids. Two nervous adults. One giant leap.
We whispered, “Are we really doing this?”
The answer:
“Sure, why not.”
3 days to go.
What If? Sure, Why Not!
A memoir about life, love, and starting over.

They showed up with three uncertain faces.
We were only supposed to foster.
But we looked at each other, hearts full and scared, and said,
“Sure, why not.”
That was the start of forever.
What If? Sure, Why Not! — 4 days to go.

She asked, “What if the ocean wasn’t in the way?”
I said, “I’ll move.”
And that was it. Everything changed.

Green fedora. Yellow bus. A life less tidy.
Excerpt from What If? Sure, Why Not! — launching July 23.

“You don’t just drive a school bus. You absorb the mood of 60 small humans before breakfast and try not to crash into your own thoughts along the way.”

#MemoirInMotion #IrishAbroad

“The bus isn’t just yellow—it’s emotional.
Some mornings it’s laughter and cereal breath, other times it’s tears, lost shoes, and the eternal question: ‘Did I bring my Chromebook?’
And me? I’m the driver, referee, part-time therapist

What If? Sure, Why Not!
Out July 23. #MemoirInMotion #WhatIf

It feels worse too and after ten years I am still not used to it.

Not quite as warm as here but not far off!

Monrovia, 2006.
Irish peacekeepers, 40°C heat, and me with a camera, a notebook, and a mission.
Not a soldier this time—just a photographer trying to capture the grit, humour, and heart of it all.
From What If? Sure, Why Not! — out July 23.

What If? Sure, Why Not!
By Billy Galligan — out July 23

From Dublin to Georgia, military boots to school bus wheels, this memoir is full of heart, humor, and second chances.

Love late, adopt three kids, start a podcast… sure why not?

#MemoirInMotion #WhatIfSureWhyNot #BillyGInAtlanta

Little excerpt from my upcoming book

From cobbled streets to southern skies, a tale both bold and fine,
Of one stout lad from Dublin’s heart who crossed the ocean line.
He packed no map, just hope and charm, and maybe half a plan,
With Guinness in his bloodstream and memories in his hand.

Less than a month to go. Was messing about some cover designs. Minecraft, Tomorrowland, Western, Apocalyptic and Film Noir were a few styles I tried out.

#SureWhyNot #ComingSoon #Memoir

And that’s a wrap! The last “Good morning” has been mumbled, the final snack has been crushed into the floor, and I’ve officially returned the bus keys with only mild hearing damage.
To the bus: you gave it socks, even in 90-degree heat. Respect.
Happy Summer!

Snow doesn’t exactly come to Atlanta that often, but this year we have had it twice already! And this school year has its third weather day closure, twice for freezing temperatures and once for hurricane! Glad not to be driving my school bus in this weather. #schoolbusdriver #snow #atlanta #weather

Driving a school bus is definitely not for the faint hearted. 5am starts and up to 60 kids on the bus for elementary school. Add in middle and high and it’s about 120 kids per day! But I love it and try to have some fun and a smile with a hello for every kids, from the kindergartener to 12th grader.

Was lucky enough to visit the MLK statue in Washington DC, visit where he was shot in Memphis and live close to where he was born and buried in Atlanta.

Made the move over from the place that shall not be named!

Is it time to leave X and move over to BlueSky. Tried Threads but it just never got going.
