An Interview With Helen Marshall

The Letterpress Project has asked authors and illustrators to think about what has inspired them as artists, what their favourite books are and how they relate to their audience - we've also asked them if they themselves are book collectors.

We are delighted to present an exclusive interview with the children's author, Helen Marshall. Helen is an author and drama facilitator from Sheffield. Her strong connection with children comes from her work running and delivering workshops for creative education companies. Her understanding of drama, storytelling and, most importantly, children have informed her work as an author. Helen also runs Allotment Arts - a company that runs projects to engage communities to work together to create a more intergenerational society and to eliminate loneliness amongst the elderly.
