WORKSHOPS:
I am available to speak and run workshops for your class, school assembly, library, writer's festival, etc. I can tailor length and content to suit your needs. I am a trained primary school teacher, I have also taught teens and adults, and I am an experienced public speaker.
Subjects I can cover include:
Migration stories and refugee journeys (which I offer to co-present with a speaker from a refugee background)
Writing interactive fiction: plots and choices
Writing stories from your own family or community
Being an author: inspiration, craft, the publication process.
