FREE READING

It's no secret that as a writer you have to read. I also find it helpful to listen to audio recordings just for variety. Micheal Moorcock and T H White bluntly advise "Read. Read everything you can lay hands on".

As there has been quite a bit of talk about J K Rowling's The Silkworm I sounds like it's probably worth a read.
You can hear an audio of chapter one here:

For those of you who aspire to write children's books, The guardian also has a list of books you can preview on their website. I particularly liked If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch.
Here's the link:
