Steve says, 'It's always a pleasure to see articles about yourself in newspapers, but even more so when they are in your local newspaper, knowing very well that this newspaper covers all of the areas where you grew up and spent your childhood years with your family and friends, that's what make it even more special'.
I would like to say a 'HUGE' thank you to all the lovely people in the Bournemouth, Poole and Dorset area who have purchased and enjoyed my books. It's people like you who keep me writing with such enthusiasm and interest. Thank you so much.

It is always a pleasure to visit schools. Each visit can be so very different to the last, which tends to make things a lot more exciting for me. On one of my most recent visits a twelve year old student asked me, 'Why are you here'? I thought it was a brilliant question.
Why indeed was I there?
Well as I then explained, I'm on a mission and that mission is to get as many young children back on the reading track, and as soon as possible . Unfortunately since the introduction of modern electronic games such as Playstations, Nintendo's and Wii's over the last two decades, reading a good book in many cases has become a thing of the past. In far too many homes reading has even become far less important than watching television, or playing electronic games and because of this a large majority of children will continue suffering greatly with their own ability to read. Maybe we should start a poll on the Chubbly blog?
