  Today I have put together a list of the things I love about reading. It’s by no means comprehensive and it’s definitely a bit random, but I hope it will strike a chord as a fitting way to sign off on my last post for Girls Heart Books…so here goes… I love how many … Continue reading →

Perils of the Internet

Posted on April 13, 2017 by Francesca Armour-Chelu • 2 Comments

It’s my last post and I’m sorry to say goodbye. So sorry that I’ve been putting off writing it. Now it’s super late and I’m racing against the clock and just realised (at 9.30 a.m) that I didn’t press the right button last night, so that’s why this is overdue! Mulling over what to write … Continue reading →

Finn is a free-running champ and karate black belt, with a talent for acting – but when his big break arrives, it’s not the role he … Continue reading →

Starting a Story – Settings and Siblings

Posted on March 20, 2017 by Faye • Leave a comment

It has struck me this past month or so how important a setting is for a story. This probably makes me sound quite stupid. I mean, it’s an obvious thing to say, settings are important – they are one of the key elements of any story – but I think to date I have taken … Continue reading →

World Book Day by Judi Curtin

Posted on March 2, 2017 by Judi Curtin • 6 Comments

Happy World Book Day, everyone! I usually celebrate this special day by curling up in a corner with a book, but this year I can’t do this, as instead I’m launching a book of my own into the world. (I’m doing lots of events this week, including The Biggest Book Show on Earth in Dublin.) … Continue reading →

Friendship

Posted on February 20, 2017 by Faye • Leave a comment

This month I’ve been thinking about friendship. My best friend, Zanna, went away at the beginning of February for 7 weeks, and despite the wonders of Whatsapp and Skype, what with the time difference and her working long hours it’s been hard for us to connect and I have to admit I’ve felt pretty lost … Continue reading →

How long does a dream take to make?

Posted on January 13, 2017 by Francesca Armour-Chelu • 4 Comments

 Hi everyone, I’m so happy to have been asked to join GirlsHeartBooks as one of their guest bloggers for the next few months. What a fabulous place to talk about books and writing – and other things! So a little bit about me; ‘I’m a writer.’ There, I’ve said it! That tiny sentence is surprisingly … Continue reading →

Gaslight by Eloise Williams

Posted on January 11, 2017 by Eloise Williams • 6 Comments

I am delighted, over the moon, hapus iawn (very happy) and quite a bit chuffed to be able to reveal the cover for my forthcoming book ‘Gaslight’. OOH! Isn’t it lovely?! *Dances about a bit in excitement* Anne Glenn has designed it and I think she’s done a lovely job, don’t you? *Dances about a … Continue reading →

An Explosion of Inspiration

Posted on December 28, 2016 by Tamsin Cooke • Leave a comment

Where does your inspiration come from? This is the most popular question I get asked when I visit schools.  Actually that’s not true. The most popular question is this: Where did you get your night vision goggles and grappling hooks from? Just to explain, I turn up at schools dressed as a cat burglar. Please don’t think I’m … Continue reading →
