POET and novelist Gervase Phinn will be back in his old stamping ground next month to sign copies of his latest book.
The former schools inspector rose to prominence with tales of his work in the Yorkshire Dales.
He now combines writing with teaching, lecturing, inspecting schools, and regularly speaking on BBC and local radio.
He has just published Head Over Heels in the Dales (Michael Joseph, £7.99), and a volume of poetry, The Day Our Teacher Went Batty (Puffin £4.99, £6.99 audio cassette).
He will be signing copies of his work from 10.30am to noon on Saturday, April 5, in the White Rose Bookshop, in Thirsk.
