| Margaret began by telling us about her life. She gave us tips on writing a book and then read us a chapter from her book. |
On Wednesday 6th March our English teacher Miss
Carey invited Margaret Scott, a local author, to our school. Margaret has just
published her first novel “Between You & Me”.

After her book reading we had a
question and answer session where we asked her where her inspiration came from
and what types of books she enjoys herself. She gave us a copy of her book as a
prize for whoever could write the best opening paragraph of a novel in class
the following day. Eleanor Younge won the novel on Thursday.
TYD would like to thank Margaret for giving us an intriguing
and informative insight into her life and writing a book. We would also like to thank Miss Carey for organizing the visit. Margaret has secured
a three book deal with Poolbeg Publishers and we hope to see her next novel on
the shelves in the coming months.
