Author Q&A at Wolston library

I walked into the quaint library at Wolston, Warwickshire and was instantly transported back to my childhood library - what a perfect little gem in the middle of the community! I was delighted to greet the audience who were eager to hear about my publishing journey. This author talk was a little different to my previous one as I had an interviewer conducting proceedings, the fabulous Aimee - a Reader Development Officer for Warwickshire. 

We spent a wonderful afternoon chatting books, sharing memories and making connections amongst the group - it was so rewarding to see the audience thoroughly enjoying themselves.
