Save Our Libraries!

On Sunday a national campaign was launched to help save our libraries. I wrote a piece talking about how special my childhood library was and is to me and our community.


‘Newarthill Library saved my life. It was safe and warm when home was cold and chaotic. Nothing bad ever happened in the library, except in books – I’m still not over Aslan and don’t get me started on Of Mice and Men. As a boy, I lost myself in stories. And eventually that’s where I found myself too, because every writer starts out as a reader.’
