Recent Events
I gave a talk and met the members of Chorley Writers’ Circle, Lancashire, on September 8th. It was the first time I’ve done such an event and it was great to meet so many writers in one place.
I also visited Westcraven High Technology College, Barnoldswick on September 11th. It was a great event and I gave two talks. The staff were very enthusiastic about the books and the audiences were a pleasure to talk to. I have another event with the school librarian, Chris Tatton, on Thursday 22nd October at the public library Barnoldswick. Details will appear soon.

I saw you today in Barnoldswick libary. I really enjoyed your chat and found it really inspiring
I had bought The Spooks Mistake a few days before and so far have really enjoyed it. I can’t wait for your next book and I’m really exited about the film, although I didnt say it I love to act and would love to play Alice because I really like her character.Thank you for coming to meet me and my school(Westcraven High Technology College). I hope I get the chance to meet you again soon.
