Last week we were thrilled to welcome award-winning author, Alex Nye, to Knightswood Secondary. This visit was, in part, to celebrate the tremendous achievement of the White Water Writers project participants in writing and editing their very own book.

Roughly 35 pupils were in attendance as Alex talked to them about what inspires her as a writer and what the writing/publishing process is like. The pupils were treated to loads of atmospheric music and images as a way to get their creativity flowing and to spark ideas for their own work.

A couple of readings from Alex and some good questions from the pupils rounded off what was truly the loveliest visit.

The visit was supported by the Scottish Government School Library Improvement Fund.
