Canongate Primary school visit

Image
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!  

Fife Climate Festival competition- 2nd place

Just discovered that my ballad poem 'Ballad of a better life' came 2nd in the Fife Climate Festival competition! Many thanks to the YMCA music students who transformed it into a song. Climate Action Fife | Fife Climate Festival competitions

Had a fantastic time at Auchterarder Book Festival today. It was lovely to catch up with Maggie Bolton. I read the story out to a group of children and then they decorated wooden swords. I even sold some copies!

Exciting weekend!

So proud of Kit. He competed at RoboDojo in York yesterday, and Exposure came 2nd in the tournament! The video is of Exposure beating Bulbaroar.  Today, I joined other authors at Forgan's Broughty Ferry for a book signing event.
