Kathryn combines being an author with being a mum, running a strawberry farm, occasionally performing belly dance and fencing competitively. What she’s best at though, is not giving up.

About Kathryn
Finally published by Usborne after fifteen years of trying, Kathryn’s debut novel More of Me was nominated for the 2017 Carnegie Medal, won the SCBWI Crystal Kite Award for UK and Ireland 2017 and the 2016 Edinburgh International Book Festival First Book Award – the first YA novel ever to do so.

Kathryn’s AIM High Writing Day

Kathryn's workshop, titled 'Magic Spark to Manuscript' will focus on creative writing. The students will look at generating ideas, character development, how to use characters, how to use setting to enhance the story and characters, the seven types of plot and story structure and how to use it. The workshop will be very intense, but also great fun. At the end of the workshop each pupil should leave with the basis of a story ready for developing.
