I'm still loving my role as Aberdeenshire Reader in Residence. The weeks are just flying by, and the diary is well booked up with lots to look forward to.
The run up to Easter was very busy with visits to care homes, schools, sheltered housing and heritage groups. I also hosted a 'Doric Night' at Ellon Library; opened a new computer room at Ellon Resource Centre; and dressed up as a woodland fairy for a storytelling stint at Aberdeenshire's Fyvie Castle. The next few months should prove to be just as eventful. Life is never dull...
We had a healthy turnout for Ellon Library's 'Doric Night' despite the freezing weather conditions. Thank you to everyone who came along to hear the poems and stories and enjoy a glass of wine and some nibbles.
Some comments from members of the public:
"What an enjoyable, entertaining evening. Excellent!
"A wonderful evening!"
"So entertained - so glad I came."
"Lots of memories, Debbie. You brought back things I'd forgotten about."
"You painted and amazing picture with your words."
