Presentations and Workshops:

I enjoy speaking at book clubs, civic and community groups, book stores, and book clubs of all sizes. Currently, I will gage these presentations around my most current book, Missus Noah. Often, these presentations include a reading.
I also present and do workshops for writers' groups and libraries. For these events I receive standard honorariums. Three of my possible presentations are:

"So You Want to Be a Writer" - Or, how I went from being a nobody who knew nobody in the business to having three books published by someone else and my advice to fellow writers. "The Stories We Tell" A workshop for writers thinking about writing down their stories: the stories of their lives, their ancestors, their town. Participants arrive with an idea they have, and actually map out their next steps based on this presentation. Includes materials and handouts.

“Revision, Editing, and Proofreading” and this will have to wait until tomorrow!
