Join us at Rugby Library to watch 'Just Sayin': Malorie Blackman in conversation with Jackie Kay', originally livestreamed from the British Library on 23rd November 2022.
Malorie Blackman is one of Britain’s best and most beloved authors of children's and young people's fiction, the landmark Noughts & Crosses series included among her many books.
Her journey to becoming a writer was a long one. Before her BAFTA award wins, her OBE and appointment as Children’s Laureate in 2013, Malorie was a young girl from South London who fell in love with books and found a home in her local library. From this early embracing of the wonder of the world and long dream of becoming a writer, her life’s journey has been an eventful one marked by trauma, setbacks and triumph.
Malorie’s autobiography Just Sayin' is funny, frank, and full of life lessons and deeply held convictions about society, healthcare and the arts. It is the deeply personal and vividly compelling account of a natural storyteller who defied expectations and inspired a generation.
