It’s been an incredibly busy spring this year with lots of visits to schools so I thought it was time to catch up and look back at some of the places I’ve been.

In April I had a great day at the ARGYLE HOUSE SCHOOL in Sunderland doing writing workshops with years 5 and 6 – talking about building characters and developing stories from them.  I was also speaking about Greyfriars Bobby, a favourite story of mine.

Later in the day I was speaking to years 7,8 & 9 about SPIDER and DEAD BOY TALKING

We looked at the research I had done for the books and          explored the characters.  We also looked at the different people involved in bringing a book from idea to final publication.

There was also time for book signing afterwards.
