Schools:

I had some great World Book Day (WBD) visits in March, earlier this year, meeting so many fantastic children and supportive teachers. I'm starting to take bookings for the Autumn term and next year's WBD, during the week 1st to 5th March 2027, so If you would like me to visit your school please drop me a line at anne.parsons8@btinternet.com. or contact me on Instagram: @thearchieseries

Festivals:

I had two successful talks at the Budleigh Salterton Literary Festival and the Clevedon LitFest, Celebration of the Book, in Autumn 2024. In 2025 I was on a panel at the Burnham Book Festival in September, and at Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival, in November, I did some storytelling for one of the Children's Story Corner sessions. Recently I attended the Bovey Book Fest. My next festival event will be at the Plymouth Literary Festival on 18th April 2027.
