I’m Max Boucherat, a Carnegie Medal nominated middle grade author who grew up hunting for ghosts in Cardiff + playing videogames a lot.
I don’t hunt for ghosts anymore (much). But it sure is fun to write about them! And of the power of hope and friendship to get us through the darkest nights.
(Oh, and it’s pronounced ‘Boo-sha-ra’!)
WELCOME!
