School visits and workshops

Inspiring children and young people to love reading is my lifelong passion. In my historical debut novel, How Far We’ve Come, the teenage protagonist finds a sense of true liberation through her discovery of the written word.

So to help you inspire your students to find the writer within, I would love the opportunity to visit your school to deliver a powerful workshop and Q&A covering topics such as:

  • Creative writing and how to find your voice

  • How to research and write a novel

  • Demystifying the publishing industry and advising students on the kind of careers it offers

 

​​With these sessions my aim is to help your students develop a love of literature as deep as my own: and even, I hope, as profound as Obah’s.

 

I look forward to hearing from you!
