Stratford Literary Festival
Bank Holiday Monday 7th May
Despite the rainy weather, lots of enthusiastic youngsters came along to our Family Fun Day at the Stratford Literary Festival - and made some fantastic, creative & colourful woolly sheep.
It was lovely to see Sarah McIntyre (Thank you to her, Annie and Zoe for the pictures) and to meet lots of new people.
Thank you to everybody who came along and a special thank you to the really kind person who helped me by cutting out all the cardboard rings, which must have taken him absolutely ages!

Arvon 2011
I've just come back from teaching for a week on an Arvon course, which was brilliant!
The course was entitled "Writing and Illustrating" and was focussed on the ins and outs of the creation process that is involved in the making of a picture book.
My co-tutor was Peter Bently and the house was set in the midst of the beautiful countryside of Devon. It was great working with Peter and all those who signed up - who were a mixture of wonderfully diverse backgrounds, talents and full of interesting/exciting ideas.
Tessa Strickland from Barefoot Books was our mid-week guest and Claire and Ollie - the Centre Directors - did a wonderful job organising everything and making us feel at home.
Thanks everyone! The work that came out of the week was amazing and I hope that everybody will go on to do really well. Also, if anybody is interested in doing an Arvon course, I definitely recommend it!
