As Headteacher of a local Primary school, Maureen Rylance was able to share her books with her pupils and spend many hours honing their writing skills. Her greatest pleasure was when her text book, "Word Play 4" was used to teach lessons. The children had never been taught by the author of a text book before. It was a unique experience for all.

Both "Word Play 4" and "The Powder Monkey" were popular books used in most Primary schools throughout the country.

The author's latest work is a story set in the time of St. Bede in Jarrow, "Whatever Gods May Be."It is currently being sent to publishers, so fingers crossed.
