Strictly Come Writing with Maisie Chan
From drawing to dim sum, Maisie Chan loves writing her favourite things into her books. During lockdown, she loved to watch Strictly Come Dancing as it made her very happy in an uncertain time. The result is Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu, her second hilarious and action-packed novel. What makes you happy? Let Maisie guide you around the metaphorical dancefloor as she shares her own inspirations: from goddesses and cosplay to a wacky road trip! Then leap into writing your own story about what’s important to you! Today's event is for children and school pupils.
