Australian SCBWI authors, illustrators and members gathered at the Hughenden to listen to visiting Scottish author.
It was wonderful to catch up with award winning author Meredith Costain who flew up from Melbourne and the Singing Librarian Claire Stuckey who drove down from the Central Coast and stayed the weekend at The Hughenden in Sydney.
We all love Linda Strachan’s best-selling and much loved HAMISH McHAGGIS series for young children.
Her latest edgy teenage novels: SPIDER published by Strident has won the Catalyst Teenage Book Award 2010 and her latest novel, DEAD BOY TALKING has just been released.
For those aspiring to become a children’s author, a new writing handbook- WRITING FOR CHILDREN.
Some other books by Linda Strachan
