# Author Visit

  ![Image of Author Visit](https://files.schudio.com/selwood-academy/images/news/Untitled_design_(13).png)  21 November 2025

Last week we were thrilled to welcome back the wonderful local author Fleur Hitchcock! ![????](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t49/1/16/1f4da.png)![✨](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/tf4/1/16/2728.png)

Our pupils got an exciting sneak peek into her brand-new book Murder At Christmas — the perfect cozy crime thriller for the festive season. ![????](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t7/1/16/1f384.png)![????](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/tc1/1/16/1f50d.png)

Fleur also shared fascinating insights into the story-writing process (spot on for this term’s English focus on storytelling!) and gave us a look behind the scenes of the publishing world.

We can’t wait to dive into our copies over the next few weeks! ![????](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t58/1/16/1f929.png)![????](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t9e/1/16/1f4d6.png)
