two days, two schools, three entirely different workshops
It’s been a busy couple of days. I was very pleased yesterday to go and see the wonderful teacher that is Bridget Norman in her new school. I met two Year 6 classes and we had a good time making up characters to star in our story. We had a goth, and a punk with …

In which I am the judge of the Honiton Writers’ Children’s Storywriting Competition
The Honiton and District Writers’ Group short story competition for children has been running since 2009, the same year my first book was published. So I like to think we’re in it together. I’ve judged all three events and enjoyed both the reading of the entries and the presenting of the awards. The 2011 event …

lots of made-up stories and a real one, mine
I set off for Glastonbury at 7.45am, having Googled the journey and added an extra 30 minutes as I don’t like to be late. I was late anyway, thanks to the snake of vehicles slithering through Knowle towards Wells. I chucked my car in the Head’s space and dashed in to find the Head standing …

Book Week at Bishop’s Hull Primary School
The whole of Key Stage 2 worked with me yesterday afternoon to make up stories. The first batch were Years 3 and 6, an unusual combination but it worked really well. A credit to the school that the Year 3s felt confident enough to participate and the Year 6s didn’t do any ‘dissing’. They really …

fresh from unputdownable, Bristol Festival of Literature
What a great day. A group of enormously positive folk decided to launch the first Bristol Festival of Literature, called ‘unputdownable’. I am lucky enough to know at least one or two of them and was pleased to be on the programme for today – BBC Radio Bristol in the morning followed by Foyles Bookshop …

a day in the life of a children’s author
Some days I don’t see anyone except my family. I stick to my keyboard and storms could lash against the windows and I wouldn’t know. My word count reaches into the thousands and a feeling of satisfaction spreads beyond my physical being and spurs me on to making a delicious dinner and putting on a …

Westbury Leigh and me
I spent Friday morning at Westbury Leigh CE Primary School running two separate workshops with Years 4 and 5. The day started and finished badly thanks to the ridiculous traffic. It was like driving through knitting. However the in-between was fun. First to roll up were Mrs Newbury and Mrs Foote’s classes. We dived straight …

a Circus Stars workshop at Ilfracombe library
As I’m enjoying a few days by the sea I thought I’d support the libraries in Devon by running a couple of storymaking workshops. One of my books has been chosen as part of the Summer Reading Challenge, called Circus Stars, so a circus story is what we’ll be inventing. There’ll be shouting and props. …

rainy day by the seaside
I’m looking at the view. It’s still beautiful but better in sunshine. We’ve been in all morning. I’ve been catching up on emails, twittering, and time-wasting generally. The three teenagers are all attached to things from iPads to MacBooks to iPods. And I can’t really complain as I’m on my MacBook. I’m trying to muster …

a school visit with a bit of commotion
I should have realised by now that winding children up to fever pitch at the beginning of a school visit is not always productive, and is certainly not relaxing. Whether it was because I’d only been out of my pyjamas for half an hour or general end-of term-ness I don’t know, but from the minute …
