Thanks Tom Palmer for such a great visit today at ! It was inspirational to see Tom’s story ideas scrapbook and his story plan, and hear all about how, even when his writing doesn’t go to plan and his confidence is down, he keeps persevering until he gets it right. What an excellent life lesson!
We had some fantastic questions from our keen audience and Tom stopped afterwards to sign books and chat. We can’t wait to get stuck into ‘If the Invader Comes’ so if you can’t find us in the next few days we’re probably reading…
