It was great visiting schools for Book Week. I always enjoy meeting my readers and all the students did some wonderful writing and drawing during the sessions.

My new novel, A Ghost in My Suitcase is progressing well. I sent the second draft to my publishers on Monday which was a big improvement on the first draft. Actually, it’s not really the second draft more like the 50th, but my publishers have only seen two, as I try and make the story the best it can possibly be before I let them have a look at it. It’s about a girl called Isabelle LaClaire who learns that she has the inherited the family’s ghostcatching powers.
