Hi Max
ReplyDeleteYes, I know of your fabulous blog, your books and your work with boys who are reluctant readers. I think your story is inspiring too, that despite your reluctance to read when younger you now write for tween boys.
Thanks for your comments and I look forward to sharing ideas and inspiration with you to keep our boys reading - and loving it.
Cheers

ReplyDeleteYou forgot to mention a couple of other important ingredients of the writing weekend - your absolute determination and passion to create great books for young boys learning to read. To build upon a love of being read to and rocket them into an exciting world of independent reading. This is a life-long gift. Your commitment and desire to achieve this is inspirational.
