A TEACHER turned children's author returned to her old school to pass on tips about writing.
Primary School supply teacher Karen Langtree is a former pupil of Lumley Junior School, Great Lumley, near Chester-leStreet, County Durham, and she has self-published her first book, My Wicked Stepmother. She now lives in York with her two children.
She returned to Lumley school to talk to pupils about writing and drama, and signed copies of the book in the village's Methodist Church.
Ms Langtree said: "I left the school about 37 years ago and it has changed alot since I was there.
"The children really seemed to enjoy the session. There were lots of questions about how to improve their own writing, which, for me, is the main purpose for doing the workshops, to inspire them with their own writing."
Claire Williams, teacher of the class of eight and nine-year-olds, said the author had inspired her pupils.
"It was really good and it inspired to start to write.
They are extremely keen to go off and write lots of stories, " she said.
