Joe Delaney SPOOKS author

I had the delight of meeting English children's author Joe Delany last Saturday. Such an engaging and energetic man! Joe's books started out telling the story of Apprentice Spook Thomas Ward and his adventures keeping The County safe from evil spectres, witches, goblins and fearful beasts. The books are phenomenally successful, with a film in the wings. Joe is contracted to write ten books for Random House and is currently writing two a year! Joe lives in Lancashire in the north of England and was an English Teacher before being able to make a living from writing and give up class work. He still visits schools and is involved with children's literature. You can check out his website here: http://www.spooksbooks.com/index.asp
