While lying in bed, half awake, I received exciting news this morning — still in early talks, so keeping it general 🤓

I just got invited by a school to give an hour long Zoom talk, before 200 students (ages 11-17, we’re exploring).

Tentative subject of presentation is:

*An Egyptian Reads His Way to Writing* —with early engagement with books; how you maintained your passion; how a reader turned writer.

I feel blessed 😇 

Only, recently, have I begun writing for student textbooks (behind the scenes).

To share my experience as a reader/reader, directly, & hopefully inspire impressionable students is a privilege!

Before my morning tea, and still processing all this good fortune :

1. They will stock my new book, “Desert Songs”. 

2. Will make it 'Book of the Month' with me as promoted author. 

3. This culminates in a Zoom - topic already proposed. 

4. They adapt curriculum in Yrs 7,8,9 to a Unit of Inquiry using my writing about Egypt.

For those unfamiliar with my work & interested, here’s a recent Zoom reading that I gave :

5. School library will carry ALL my books! 🤗
