These new unicorn mask kits have arrived just in time for this afternoon’s Unicorn Party! We totally love them 🤩♥️
A 218 year old murder mystery!
Big pile of documents just arrived from the National Archives – today I find out why a suspected murderer with a huge heap of evidence against him got away with it!
The audience at Aden’s Terrifying Tales will find out tomorrow!
(Better get translating 
)

Thankyou Tullos Primary!
Thankyou Tullos Primary School for the lovely cards and letters which I received after telling stories for Book Week Scotland.
I love receiving pictures and letters! Especially if I have instilled a healthy respect for Scottish fairies!

National Storytelling Week – 27 Jan to 3 Feb
Happy New Year Everyone! 
Today also brings the news that the 27th January to the 3rd February is National Storytelling Week.
If you would like a storyteller for your school, club or event, just ping me a message! Stories can be set to (pretty much) any project theme that you’re working on. 
Seasons Greetings!
That’s the last storytelling session of 2018 done and dusted with a covering of snow and excess glitter 
The fairies and myself would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄🧚♂️🌟☃️🎅

Book Week Scotland at Tullos Primary School
I made a visit yesterday to Tullos Primary School for #BookWeekScotland!
I had a challenging (but fun!) list of class subjects to work on – picking out stories for “Gaming”, “Animation”, “Fame” and “”The Greatest Show” and had a fantastic time telling stories in their new library space!
Some imps turned up to help me tell one of Stanley Robertson’s stories, and we managed to save Mary from the Devil’s clutches. I love my job 😉 
A Halloween Birthday Surprise!
A few photos from Samuel’s (surprise!) birthday party on Friday 2nd November – ghost stories, Halloween lanterns and scars! Thanks for having me along guys! 😀
Halloween!
Hallowe’en is always a busy (and fun!) time of year for storytellers – however with a 6 year old daughter who we didn’t want to take out of school, we chose to take our long awaited holiday during the Tattie Holidays this year, meaning we arrived back home in Aberdeen at mid day on Hallowe’en! (Dressed as skeletons for the whole journey I might add!)
We didn’t want to miss out on anything though, so did what we have been doing for the past 3 years – before any Hallowe’en bookings I set up my wee fire on my driveway and tell stories to the local kids who are guising! (Most of them know me from school and it’s a chance to tell spooky stories I wouldn’t normally be telling within a class setting!)
I love Hallowe’en!
The fire is lit!
Ready for the guisers!
Molly, 6, opts for a different outfit 😉
