I visit schools to talk about creative writing, poetry and putting pen to page. I had the warmest reception at Cowley International College where I ran two creative writing workshops for year 10s and 6th formers, and read from my work-in-progress, BLOOD MOON, a YA novel in verse. Thanks for having me @cowleian. 

BLOOD MOON, my YA novel in verse about the online shaming of teenage Frankie is shortlisted for the Bath Children's Novel Award 2018. Click image to read the opening extract.

I do workshops with little ones too. This was a lovely little session on  BACK TO SCHOOL TORTOISE at Cowbridge Children's Book Festival, talking about back-school-nerves and overcoming our worries.
