Delighted that my 100 word story was commended in the recent Friday Flash Fiction Christmas competition. I use a pseudonym- Teri Wright- for that site. You can read the story here https://www.fridayflashfiction.com/100-word-stories/x-mas-by-teri-wright

On Saturday 30th November, I represented City Writers at Discovery Point's Christmas Market. Many thanks to everyone who came along and bought a copy of Captain Kit.  On Sunday 1st December, I supported Kit at Battle in the Burgh. Delighted that he won each of the three first round fights with a knock-out. Unfortunately, he was beaten in the round of 16, and during the first round of the team fights. Amazing day though!  Read more about the event at Kit's blogger page  Team Fission Combat Robotics

Had my first ever school visit today at Canongate Primary School. It was wonderful to have an event during Book Week Scotland . The P1 pupils enjoyed hearing me read Captain Kit. They then decorated swords and pirate ships. Kit then talked about his combat robot, Exposure, and showed them videos of his fights at Robodojo . Fantastic afternoon!
