Dear Barry

I am writing to say what a good book you have written.

It was a very good book, a bit scary but that made it even better. I liked how you described everything so you could picture it in your head. Thank you for giving me the proof and it was very good to read.

Hey Louis, thanks for the review! Really pleased you liked Invisible Fiends but come on, you’ll only probably buy my next book? You’d better, or I’ll send Mr Mumbles round to sort you out!

Dear Barry

I am writing to you to give you my book review on invisible fiends!

I thought it was a fantastic book,the best descriptive book by far that i have ever read. The story line was great,i could picture every single bit of the book. I look forward to your next book and will probably buy it.

Hi Syeda,

Thanks for your review – it’s great to hear you enjoyed reading all about Mr Mumbles! I had a fantastic time visiting Caol, and will be coming back shortly after the book comes out in January. I might even give you all a sneak preview of book 2 then…

Cheers!

Hey Barry my name’s Syeda. You came to my school (Coal primary school). I read your book ‘Invisible fiends’. I absolutely loved it . I can’t wait for the next one. It is so descriptive I actually felt like I was there and it did give me a couple of goose bumps once or twice.

Hey Charis, great to hear from you! Really pleased that you enjoyed the workshop and found it useful. I had a great time, and loved the ideas everyone was coming up with.

It’s great to hear that you want to be an author. I was about your age when I decided that was what I wanted to do. It takes a lot of hard work and determination (and quite a lot of luck) to become an author, but if you try hard you’ll do it.

The next workshops I’m doing are all in other schools, but I’ll probably be doing one soon at the library. I’ll post a message here when I know the date, and I’ll send you an email so you don’t miss it!
