About Nick
Nick has published three dozen books and has made more than 40,000 public appearances. His poetry books alone have sold well over half a million copies!
He’s worked as a visiting writer, tutor and performer in thousands of schools. He also performs at festivals and family events, in libraries and prisons, on radio and TV and in colleges and universities. He’s even been paid to tour supermarkets, perform on a train and in a fast-food restaurant, read from the top of a ladder in a church, and help children to write poems while caving! Nick is a craftsman and a wordsmith of the highest order. His poems are funny and thought-provoking, accessible yet challenging, and above all they paint a vivid picture in the mind of the reader.
Nick’s AIM High Writing Days
Nick’s AIM High Days and literacy workshops are lively, lots of fun and made up of lots of short exercises to keep the children’s interest throughout the day. He is a very talented writer who can run his sessions on poetry, performance poetry, creative writing, writing to entertain, song writing or journalistic writing.
His workshops can be for children of any age and ability from pre-school right the way through to adults. The children are given lots of encouragement, guidance and praise throughout the day. Nick also encourages the children to take the techniques they have learnt back to their classrooms so they can share them with their peers.
