On the 18th October, award winning author Candice Carty-Williams came to Lewisham Library to speak to a group of students from Prendergast Vale School.
Her debut novel Queenie won book of the year at the British Book Awards and her second novel, Empress & Aniya is a young adult novel that has been
called South East London's answer to freaky Friday. She talked to the students about her new book, her love of reading and her writing process and
most importantly, her time own time growing up in Lewisham. Afterwards I spoke with some of the students to get their thoughts on the event as well as asking them about what they were currently reading. I was then able to speak with Candice about her career so far, our shared love of 'Point Horror' and about what it was like to come back to Lewisham Library
