- About Me:
- I am a retired teacher and also a published poet. If you Google: JOSIE'S POEMS you will not only learn about me, but will find lots of lovely poetry which is freely available for you to use in your classrooms and libraries. I write lots of story poems for children, but I write for children of all ages from preschool up to adults. They enjoy my poems and I've been in contact with children of various ages all through my three year writing career, and have been encouraged by their enthusiasm for my work. I visit local schools, libraries and take the Children's Corner of the Ilkley Literature Festival - a one month prestigious Literature Festival in my hometown of Ilkley, West Yorkshire. I also make Skype visits to classrooms. Contact me for details.
In the three years of my writing career I have now written well over 600 new poems which will soon be in schools, bookstores and libraries in five books comprising all my own work. There is also a small animated film called The Wizard of Alderley Edge (Cheshire) available too.
SKYPE VISITS TO SCHOOLS ND LIBRARIES ETC
Please contact me if you are interested in a short skype visit to your classroom or library.
