Speaker Topics
I am available for author presentations, book signings, book club discussions, and writing workshops at brick-and-mortar retailers, libraries, or a location near you. Opportunities to present online via Zoom are also welcome.
Interested in having me discuss the writing journey, personal essays, NaNoWriMo, line editing, publication submission, character or setting development, PR writing for nonprofits, or something else entirely? Let's connect. I am happy to customize my fiction or nonfiction speaker content to support your needs.
