Story Author - Ella West

Today in period 1 a famous author came into our school called Ella West. First she told us what her books are called what how she created the books. Then she told us it is about murder's and ect and she told us that she likes writing about murders and people dieing which I thought was quiet weird and sad.

Here are some facts about Ella West. Ella west lives in Dunedin and she has a website that her son controls it so she isn't doing 2 things at once. Ella has a dog called Jim and he has 2 different coloured eyes 1 is blue and 1 is brown and her dog is a farmer dog. In Dunedin were Ella lives she has a farm and she has alot of sheep. Right across from the farm there is a forest and that is where she thought of a setting for her book called "night vision". Ella told us something interesting which was that if you have sheep you should cut there tails off because flies go near there bum and poo in there and it is very painful for them.

What I enjoyed the most was listening to what she said because it was very interesting but It was quiet sad because she likes writing about murders and about how to kill people and ect. What else I enjoyed was that how she creates the books. Ella said one time that she went to a place to publish her book and they read it and they said they will publish it if she rewrites the story. Something else Ella said is that she only gets 2 dollars off every book and 1 of our teachers said why do you like writing books when you only get 2 dollars about them. After she said that it is because it is fun and we like playing sport and playing games and it is the same thing.
