Virtual school visits
Welcome to a new school year!
I’m looking forward to talking to children about The Seamaiden’s Odyssey in one of my virtual school visits. I frequently visit schools and universities all over the world by the magic of Zoom and I’m very pleased to say that I’ll be continuing to do so this coming school year, after the October half-term.
The way it works is that the school or college hosts the event. I spend about 40 minutes with the students, usually talking about the book they’ve been studying in class, my inspiration for it, answering questions and sometimes sharing some of the students’ own work. It’s always a lovely way to share ideas, and it’s wonderful to see how enthusiastic the children and teachers are.
I don’t charge a fee, but I do ask schools to buy copies of any of my books, from whatever source. I’m happy to make suggestions, and I also ask schools to let me know which books they’ve selected, out of interest.
Last year was very busy, and I was happy to talk about some of the books that are currently read a lot in schools, mainly Street Child, Treason, Children of Winter and Blue John. I’m looking forward to adding The Seamaiden’s Odyssey to this list!
