UKYACX - Simon P Clark

Why, hello again! Welcome to the UKYACX Middle Grade Tour! Today is my stop and I would like to welcome Simon P Clark. Simon is the author of Eren, a story that follows Oli, who believes that the adults in his life are keeping secrets. His Mum takes him into the country to stay with his Aunt and Uncle, but no one telling him why Dad isn't with them.

Then Oli has a secret himself. In the attic, Oli discovers a creature. Eren, who isn't human and who feeds on stories. He needs stories to live. And he wants Oli to tell them. As Oli tells Eren the stories, he begins to understand the secrets the grown up are hiding. Soon, Oli will have to make a choose: confront the truth, or abandon himself into Eren's world...

Now, when Simon and I got chatted on what today's post was going to be about, we talked about stories and why they are so important. Stories and the telling of stories is hugely important in Eren. And Simon was very kind to write this post asking why telling stories are so important.

Now, before I hand you over to Simon, I must thank him for taking time out to write this. And I want to thank Kerry for organising both UKYACX blog tours! Also, if you wanna check Simon out, you can check him out at http://www.simonpclark.com or https://twitter.com/sipclark.
