We were delighted to welcome bestselling author Emma Carroll to school to talk about her new book, Dracula and Daughters. Emma spoke to a packed hall of Year 7 students, KS3 book clubs and student librarians about her career, the writing process and gothic fiction. She answered dozens of student questions on everything from creative writing tips to her favourite books and the best snacks for when you are writing. Students also had the opportunity to meet Emma and get their books signed.

With many thanks to The Rocketship Bookshop who sold books at the event. All of Emma’s books are available to borrow from the school library.
