EVENTS & SCHOOL VISITS
I offer school visits for UK years 6-9. I'm based on the south-east London/Kent border but will travel.
Book me for an assembly that can include: how I write my books, fake news and data gathering, and the health benefits of horror. Let me turn your students into human lie detectors!
​
I also give smaller group creative-writing workshops, looking at how to inject suspense, excitement and horror into stories.

"What an amazing morning you gave to our Year 7s following your book 'Bite Risk' being chosen as the winner of our BET Book award.
Your creative writing workshop engaged our students to write their own scary story. It was a treat to have a published author inspire our students, making writing more real and inspiring future authors. They were all keen to participate and enjoyed the Q&A - Thank you."

"Thank you so much for providing such an entertaining workshop, spending time with all the students who loved meeting you, and taking part in the afternoon Q and A. The feedback we’ve received since has been so positive."

"Sophie's book "Bite Risk" was hugely popular at our event and many of the students were excited to read the follow up. Her talk was the perfect mixture of information and activities, and the pupils loved getting involved with the participation sections. She had brilliant answers for their questions and was wonderfully considerate when the attendees' wanted photos and book signings!"
