Writing Hannah: On Writing for Children

Published by Hale & Ironmonger 1999

The notebooks and diaries I kept while writing Hannah and the Tomorrow Room have now been transformed into a study of the process of writing that novel. There is also additional comment on writing in general and specific references to other novels and picture books.

Review

'· this intimate and honest insight into how one author worked on a particular novel that gives the book its candid warmth and makes it stand out from others in the field.' Moira Robinson, Magpies
