You now have the opportunity to win a signed copy of my latest book, “This Is Not A Fairy Story.” This is a fantasy tale in which modern day sorcerer Guy Shepardson (the eponymous Demon Detective
) travels to a magical realm on a quest to save a desperately ill girl.
Entrance is free: all you have to do is come up with three words which would inspire a secondary school pupil (i.e. a boy or girl aged 11 to 16) with a sense of School Ethos. If you are successful, I will post you a signed copy of my book no matter where in the world you happen to live. The closing date is Thursday 24th January 2013 and my decision is final.




Walls are illusions.
School ethos? If you say “walls are illusions” to a load of teenagers, you can bet at least one of them is going to think it a funny joke to bump into a brick wall on purpose!
How about something like “Belief Attitude Determination” ?
This shall pass
Even heroes go.
or Alex Sumner went!
