School Visits


​I love visiting schools and speaking to students about THE EYE OF ODIN, publishing, and their own writing. As a teacher and librarian of over eighteen years experience, I am thrilled to extend my teaching and presentation skills into the classroom. I also provide virtual classroom visits (see below)

Presentations generally begin with a brief introduction about me, THE RAIDERS OF FOLKLORE series, publishing in general, and then shift into a topical focus. Each presentation is roughly 60 minutes in length and includes time for Q & A and a book signing afterwards.

Presentation topics include:
  • My Author Experience
  • Just Say No To Pantsing: The How To of Outlining
  • A Writer's Digital Tools
  • Your Students' Writing Issue

Virtual School Visits

​
Virtual school visits usually come in three different formats:
  1. group interview-style, where pre-selected students ask questions; 
  2. individual interview-style, where all participants are welcome to ask questions; 
  3. or workshop-style.

For some workshops, I offer a multiple-session program of 45 minutes each. In the first visit, I can discuss goals with the teacher. In the second session, I present the workshop content to students. In the third session, I give feedback to students on their work.

Skype, Google Hangout or Facebook visit:
          30 min = $100
          60 min = $150
          Multiple-Session Program = $125 per session
