I’m honoured to have been invited to adjudicate this year’s Scottish Association of Writers competition for writing for the Under 7s. Working through the entries has been a joy and I’m looking forward to announcing the winners at this year’s conference at the end of March.

I’ve also been invited to give a workshop at this years Scottish Association of Writers annual conference. My session, Writing & Publishing Children’s Picture Books to Traditionally Published Standards, is on the Saturday morning.
