On Tuesday 9th and Thursday 11th May, Author and Reception teacher Mrs Annie Muscutt led creative writing workshop with Yr 6 and Yr 7 pupils.

Mrs Muscutt, who has been a Reception class teacher at Winterfold for the last 7 years, first started writing as a child but it wasn’t until she was a younger adult that Mrs Muscott began writing more seriously with the hope of later publication. Her first novel ‘Eringuild’, an exciting, magical, fantasy adventure for older children was published in the summer of 2016.  Mrs Muscutt’s latest novel “The Devil Within” is a thriller set in early 20th century Britain in the unnoticed countryside.  The novel is available in paperback and on Amazon Kindle.

Mrs Muscutt said “Writing is a creative passion of mine and I am delighted that my second novel has been published”.  “I’m pleased to have had the opportunity to share my writing skills with Winterfold pupils”.

“It was great to explain the creative process to Yr 6 and 7 and to look at how a book can begin from a few ideas.  There was some impressive, creative thought in brainstorming sessions and we explored characters and the importance of book descriptions in terms of hopefully capturing an audience”.
