Details
In addition to being an author,I also work as a professional actor, so I am a seasoned performer, and love to give lively renderings of classic poems, songs and stories for children. I find this generates enthusiasm and interest which can be used to get children involved in reading, and in creating their own work.
My writing experience is also very varied (television, radio, stage, and poetry, as well as books for children) so I am able to interest children in the idea of writing for different media.
