Hello everyone... it was wonderful spending the morning with you all at Ysgol Cefn Meiriadog yesterday. I really enjoyed meeting everyone and having the chance to share some of my stories. Thank you for asking such well thought out questions too - you all helped make the morning fun and exciting.
I'm very happy to know that I will be visiting school again to share more stories - and not only my own - but books by other authors too. There are lots of fantastic books out there so I will be really interested to hear what you are reading and what sort of things you like to read.
You can get in touch with me by email or by leaving a comment on this page - but make sure you ask your teachers or parents for permission first. (Teachers and parents can get in touch too of course...)
All comments will be checked by my before they appear on the page so don't worry if your comment does not appear straight away.

ReplyDeleteHi Charlotte, thank you for leaving a message - it's great to hear from you. Bad Dad is a David Walliams book isn't it. I have read some of his but not that one. Would you recommend it?
DeleteThe book I am reading is Carol Ann Duffy (book of poems.)
ReplyDeleteMy question is, what inspired you to start writing books?
From

Carol Ann Duffy is a great poet isn't she... I should read more of her books myself. I hope that you are enjoyoing it.
DeleteI will write a seperate post in my diary about what inspired me to write books as I know that a couple of other people want to know too :-)

Hannah innnovators yscol cefyn meriadog
Belinda Brag does sound very funny Hannah. I think I should add this book to my list of 'books everyone should read'. I will put a little list on this page soon :-)
DeleteHi my current book i am reading is Clarkson's farm Diddly squat 'till the cows come home. what is your favourite book you have written?
ReplyDeleteHarper Warner class Innovators.
Hi Harper, that is interesting to hear. I did not expect anyone to be reading that. It makes me think that perhaps your family have a farm.
DeleteI have just read the first few pages of the book and now I think I am going to have to read it all. My wife, Vicky, is going to borrow it from the library for me. Thank you for suggesting that...
The book i am reading is Explorer from Oliver at Innovators
ReplyDeleteHello Oliver - thank you for taking the time to let me know what you are reading. It's great to hear from you.
DeleteIs that The Explorer by Katherine Rundell?
Yes this explorer is from Katherine Rundell it is weird how hatchet and explorer start the same way

Have you read Bonnie vs Monkey? From Ezra.
DeleteYes, that is a bit weird isn't it. I think you will find that there are a few other books that start in a similar way - especially with aeroplanes crashing in jungles or boats being wrecked - leaving someone on an island or in a jungle.
DeleteDoing this allows the author to write an adventure story about a child being lost in a strange and dangerous place.
Hi Ezra... no, I havn't read Bonnie vs Monkey yet. I still need to go and get it from the library. I will add it to my list of 'books that people should read' which I will add to this diary very soon.
DeleteHi these are the books i have read and i am reading now in the Christmas holidays i read a Lottie Brooks Christmas book and now i am The Extremely Embarrassing Life Of Lottie Brooks.In our class we are reading Hatchet by Gary Paulsen.
ReplyDeletehi i at the moment I reading Mr stink by David Walliams it is a very interesting by Vogue in the innovators
ReplyDeleteHi Vogue, thanks for letting me know what you are reading... Mr Stink is one of David's books that I have read. I agree with you. It is very interesting. And there's some funny bits which is always good. :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Damien have you read any more of CCLLAARRKKSSOONN!! quick question do you like Barak Obama, jo biden And Donald trump. From Harper warner At Cefn meriadog.
ReplyDeleteHi Harper... no, I haven't had time to read any more yet, but my wife has now brought two of them home for me to read.
DeleteI did like Barak Obama and thought that he seemed to be a good president.
I must admit, I do not pay much attention to American politics so have not really seen much of Joe Biden. I would rather not think about the other one :-)
Hi Damien funny books are always my favourite because they make my day and they are when the books become more interesting. By Vogue from the innovators Ysgol Cefn Meiriadog bye and have a wonderful day :->
ReplyDeleteHi Vogue... I know what you mean. I really like funny books too. I like to put funny things in my stories when I can too. The dinosaur books that I am writing now will have some funny things in them.
