"Rohan combines all the elements of basic fantasy -- a young hero, mentors, villains, something to be saved, special powers and, of course, magical creatures -- with great storytelling that appeals to a wide audience." KIRKUS REVIEWS

A warm welcome from Heroes' Memorial Elementary!


I visited Heroe's Memorial Elementary on November 13, 2012 and had a wonderful time meeting the students there and telling them about "Weaverworld".
 
Heroes' Grades 5 and 5/6


As with previous presentations, I began by telling them a little bit about myself and how I came to write the "Weaverworld" series. The students were especially interested in knowing what inspired me to write the books and how long it took (9 years, so far!).

Heroes' Grades 6 and 7

Many thanks to Lisa Bates and the other teachers for welcoming me to the school. And of course, thanks to all the students for listening so attentively and asking such great questions.
 
P.S. For those who are still looking for copies of the book, they are available at Brome Lake Books in Knowlton and at Libraire le livre d'or in Sutton. For those who don't live in Brome Missisquoi, you may order a copy from your local bookstore, or purchase copies online at all online retailers (Amazon, Chapters/Indigo, etc.)

    Yay! :) I was one of the students at Heroes' who got the copy, and I absolutely adore the book.
    I finished it quickly after two days, and then re-read it over and over again, it's one of my most treasured books now.
    After I finished it, I even started working on a little fan-fiction of it.
    Thank you so much for the book, it's inspired me to start writing more stories!
    I eagerly await the next book. :)
