Sandra Glover - Local Author

Sandra Glover visited the library today to run writing workshops with groups of students. Sandra taught students the techniques for writing suspense and read sections from some of her books.  She chatted with students at lunchtime and some bought copies of her books.  We have many of Sandra's books on display in the library - pop in and borrow some!
