The Hot Key Books Young Writers Prize returns for a second year! The Prize looks to uncover new writing talent between the ages of 18 and 25, who submit their work in either of two categories: 9-12 and young adult (for ages 13-19). Last year saw over 350 entries from writers all over the world with two winners scooping the chance to be published by Hot Key Books. Find out more HERE

Grampian Children’s Book Award Ceremony
A group of ten first years, accompanied by Ms Vincze and Mrs Üstün, attended the GCBA ceremony at Aberdeen University. Three of the shortlisted authors were there – Cathy Cassidy, Cathy Macphail and Nicola Morgan. Neil Gaiman, Michael Morpurgo and Charlie Higson were represented by Caroline Clough, an author based here in the north east. She talked a little about her book, Red Fever, which is set in the north east. I’m looking forward to reading it.
