Schools and Libraries

I am very happy to visit your school or library.

Primary Schools.
Since I write over such a wide age range, I can offer talks and presentations to different year groups.

For ages 5-7, I can talk about natural history, using the books listed in that section of the site.

For ages 7-9 and 9-11, I have a power point presentation for the Edwardian detective books with the pictures that I used for research. The talk is wide ranging and informative and includes readings from the books, general knowledge and an explanation of the writing process. I tailor the talk to suit the age group. There is a question and answer session and book signing afterwards.

Creative Writing Workshops
I would tailor these to your students’ age group and needs. Topics would include how to develop characters, how to put together a plot, the art of description and how to get ideas. The workshops are most effective working with smaller numbers.
