Tracey and I met David Whitehouse last night at Nuneaton Library. He was promoting his latest novel "Mobile Library". David is an ex-student of KEC (when it was KEGS). It was fascinating to hear about his Nuneaton childhood and his road to becoming a prize-winning writer. Inspiration for his current novel was the mobile library he visited as a young boy; the place he first discovered books.
David praised his KEGS English teachers who really encouraged his creativity. David has promised to visit KEC to talk to us about his life as a journalist, novelist and screen play writer. He also signed the Library copy of his book. His message reads:
"For the students at KEC.
Hello! Study harder!"
If you want to read David's books we've got copies of "Mobile Library" and his previous novel "Bed" in the Library.
