Writer of books for children and young people. Just out, and coming soon! I teach creative writing in Cheddar, where I live. At the moment the group meets on Thursday mornings. ( Though in future I may run some Saturday workshops, for people who can’t make it during the daytime.). We often begin by reading out the work people have done following the previous session: it’s always fascinating to see how the stories/poems/whatever vary, even though they came from the same starting point.

A fool on a hill...: August 2015
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Saturday, 29 August 2015. The Century Trilogy, by Ken Follett. First up, apologies for not having posted for such a long time. It's been a busy few weeks - particularly the bit where we had two nine year olds to stay! With not much time or head-space for writing blogs. The boxed set. (See how big they are? And there are a lot. What Follett does is to use the fortunes of these families as a vehicle for nothing less than relating the entire histo...
A fool on a hill...: June 2015
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Monday, 22 June 2015. Congratulations to Tanya Landman, winner of the 2015 Carnegie Medal! The Carnegie Medal is the big one for writers of children's books - the one we'd all like to win. (Well, we'd like to win any prize - but this one would be the cherry on anyone's cake! Tanya Landman earlier today at the Carnegie presentation. But to return to the book - I reviewed it not long after it first came out, and you can see that review here.
A fool on a hill...: February 2015
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Wednesday, 25 February 2015. Just a word first about that term, junior novels. They're sometimes called 'middle-grade' novels, and they are - very approximately - intended for 9-12 year olds. (Many of them could be, and are, enjoyed equally by adults - don't dismiss books because they happen to be on the children's shelves in the bookshop! And 'Young Adult' books even more so.). Fairy-tales do sometimes come true - don't they? This book is a ve...
A fool on a hill...: January 2015
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Friday, 23 January 2015. Trouble on Cable Street, by Joan Lingard. Anyone who was teaching English in the late 70s/early 80s - and probably after that - will remember the name of Joan Lingard. She wrote Across the Barricades. Concerns Isabella, whose mother is Spanish. She has two brothers. One has chosen to fight in the Spanish Civil War for the Republicans: the other, by contrast, is attracted by Oswald Mosley's increasingly powerful ...And a...
A fool on a hill...: Liberty's Fire, by Lydia Syson
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015/05/libertys-fire-by-lydia-syson.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Tuesday, 26 May 2015. Liberty's Fire, by Lydia Syson. Like Lydia Syson's previous books, A World Between Us. And That Burning Summer. Liberty's Fire is set during the Paris Uprising of 1871, when the workers, starving and desperate after being besieged by the Prussians, declared that the people would govern the city through a Commune. It's a time about which I knew virtually nothing: after reading the book, I know a great deal more! The cloud h...
A fool on a hill...: Marbeck and the Gunpowder Plot, by John Pilkington
http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015/06/marbeck-and-gunpowder-plot-by-john.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Monday, 15 June 2015. Marbeck and the Gunpowder Plot, by John Pilkington. Before he took to writing novels, John Pilkington wrote television scripts and plays for radio and theatre. Clearly, he has used the skills he learnt there in creating his historical thrillers: they are tightly plotted and full of reversals and surprises, with cliffhangers which are - literally, in the case of some of the characters - to die for! 15 June 2015 at 03:57.
A fool on a hill...: 'Of shoes and ships and sealing wax...'

A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Friday, 7 August 2015. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax.'. Actually this post is about none of the things in the title - but like the Walrus's list of conversational topics, it's a bit of a mish-mash. I've been back and forth to various places over the last few weeks, and there are a smattering of things I'd like to share. Dangerous Work at Low Tide. And my only complaint is that the last one finishes with a heartbreaking hint of what could h...

http://suepurkiss.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
A fool on a hill. Sue Purkiss, writing (mainly) about books. Sunday, 19 July 2015. Looking at the Stars, by Jo Cotterill. A couple of weeks ago, I was at a gathering of children's writers in Oxfordshire. It's an annual event, held in a mellow golden stone manor house owned by the Society of Friends - the Quakers. It's a lovely setting, and the conference is always a great opportunity to relax and re-charge the writing batteries in the company of other writers. Have you read any good teenage novels lately?

Writer of books for children and young people. Just out, and coming soon! So here we are, in a corner of the hut where I write.

You’ll see why I’ve been reading about Shakespeare and escapers if you go to the page about books coming soon. Blog at WordPress.com.

In April 2012, it will be 30 years for Sue as the owner of Kinder Haus Toys. The store thrived in a rental space on Lee Highway in Arlington, Virginia until 2005. Then Sue and her husband, Everett, decided to buy a retail condo in Clarendon, a vibrant, growing Arlington neighborhood. With a mighty struggle, the store re-opened in the new location in 2006 and has continued to do very well.
