This was supposed to be posted during the break between books 1 and 2 of The Kingswood Saga. Just found it in my drafts! Enjoy...

So in my head, there is a school magazine produced once a year to summarise events, inform students and teachers of changes and generally celebrate Kingswood. One of the features included is interviews of select staff members, carried out by a student.

I don't have the patience to produce the full magazine, but I did write a couple of the staff interviews. I selected Mr Trent (First Floor Master) because he was such a prominent presence in the boys' first year at the school and Mr Warren (a.k.a. Ruby, Art Teacher and Drama Club) because he mostly showed up hosting parties, but he was always fun to write.

For some reason, I also chose Mr Klaus Richter (French Teacher and Chess Club). Writing the end-of-year reports was an insight into the teachers as much as the students and it became clear early on that he was a man of few words, which just seemed like it would make for a hilariously blunt interview!

Anyway, all three interviews are attached. Enjoy.
