Talks in Schools
Julian delivers talks about writing in schools and colleges, starting with his own schooling, his time at university, his sporting past, his previous jobs and how he began writing and performing and his route into comedy.
Julian uses visual aids, Q&As, reads his funny poems and extracts from his book 'How To Dump Your Girlfriend'(where appropriate). Suitable for Years 5&6 upwards.
Because Julian is a regular on the 'performing circuit' he is able to bring alive the life of a writer, and as he's from a comedy background the sessions are fairly light hearted.
As part of World Book Day, Julian went into a college in Rochdale with fellow authors, Terry Christian and Zahid Hussain. (see pic above)
Background Info. Julian has been going into schools talking about his experiences since 1997. Starting with his work with STEP (Strategies to Elevate People). He was then employed by City College Manchester to go into several schools as a Mentor. In addition to these talks he also runs poetry workshops in schools.
