Writers’ Weekend
I am delighted to announce that I will be reading extracts from The White Phoenix at this year’s Virtual Writers’ Weekend, as part of their Success Stories event on Friday 25 June. The Success Stories evening showcases authors who have found publishing success as a result of attending the Writers’ Festival/Writers’ Weekend over the past few years. Having attended the Writers’ Festival four times and learned loads from it, I am very excited to be actually taking part. It’s also a thrill to be sharing a virtual platform with friends I met through the event. The Virtual Writers’ Weekend runs from 24 – 27 June, 2021. You can find out all about it and book here www.writersweekend.uk

World Book Day 2021
I had great fun recording World Book Day virtual author visits for three schools in early March. I also did a live author visit by Zoom with Year 6 pupils at St Paul’s Catholic Primary School, Thames Ditton. It was wonderful to be able to interact with the children – they asked some very thought-provoking questions. I’m really looking forward to doing live author visits next term.
