What a busy few days visiting Libraries in Gloucestershire, I had a lovely time at Gloucester, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury and Chuchdown Libraries, the children loved listening to me read from My Teacher’s a Robot!, even parents enjoyed the story and had more questions than the children.

Each Library made a great effort advertising the event with Tewkesbury and Chuchdown even making robots which were great, the children then got busy drawing me design’s for the front cover of my next book My Teacher’s a Spy !!

There were some great ideas and they all enjoyed drawing with some input from me and the parents, I am sure everyone had a nice time at each Library, with any luck I might be back with My Teacher’s a Spy !! in the future.

Another school visit confirmed with Tuffley Primary school on Wednesday 8th June, I am looking forward to reading from My Teacher’s a Robot! and then answering the children’s questions, I am also happy to sign any book presented. 😀

On the shelf @ Waterstones

After a check through the proof’s of My Teacher’s a Spy !! it all looks great, I had forgotten how good the story was with all it’s twists and turns, now it’s over to Austin Macauley so they can start producing the book and then we can start thinking about the front cover, exciting !!

I am sure people will enjoy this book as much as the first, though the My Teacher theme continue’s it is a different story with new hero’s and is an adventure children will love, really looking forward to seeing it in print, I still get excited seeing my name next to the copyright, small things…

I’m so excited, I have received the Proof’s of My Teacher’s a Spy !!, I can’t wait to read through the book, make sure everything is perfect and send it back to Austin Macauley so the book can be made and then it’s on to designing the front cover.

It is always exciting when you get your book proof’s for the first time, although this is my second book it is still amazing to see your book in print, your name next to the copyright and all your hard work laid out in front of you, this is where it gets serious and before you know it you have decided on how it will look.

We also have the backcover blurb that is great and sounds exciting, a big thank you to the guy’s at Austin Macauley for their help again in making this look great, I hope people enjoy this one as much as they have My Teacher’s a Robot!

And the events just keep coming !!  I have been asked to host an event at Churchdown Library during the Half Term Holiday, I will be there on Wednesday 1st June at 2:15pm, the plan is for me to read a couple of chapters from My Teacher’s a Robot!, answer some questions then do some creative / fun writing and maybe some character drawing if we have time.

This is perfect as I continue to publicise my book series and also give something back, I am sure the children will enjoy my event, everyone is welcome as the more the merrier as they say, really excited and looking forward to it.

I have been patiently waiting now for the first proof’s of the next instalment of the My Teacher Series, Austin Macauley tell me we are nearly there, I am thrilled to see it moving along well and just really excited to read them, once read we can start designing the front cover then it gets real.

My Teacher’s a Spy !! will hopefully be out around September this year and with me having already written book three and currently writing book four the series is really starting to take shape now, I have so many more idea’s and I can’t wait to write them and for people to enjoy them as much as they have My Teacher’s a Robot!

Watch this space for more updates as the series really gets going !!

It has been a busy first six months, I have now visited the following nine schools:

Heron Primary

Robinswood Primary

Abbeymead Primary

Waterwells Primary

Elmbridge Juniors

Hardwicke Parochial

Beech Green Primary

Harewood Juniors

Coney Hill Primary

The children have listened intently, enjoyed the opening of My Teacher’s a Robot! and they have asked some great questions. The schools were very welcoming with everyone taking an interest in me and my book, taking time to let me be involved in an assembly, signing books and flyers whilst welcoming me back in the future.

I was even impressed to hear that one young lady at Heron Primary dressed as Miss Ironside on World Book Day, that was brilliant, would have loved to have seen her costume but great effort made.

Attached are some newsletters from the schools talking about my visit.
