Speaking
I have been speaking at publishing and writing conferences for years. If you would like me to speak at your meeting, please email me the details and I will be happy to contact you. I am open to tailoring a talk specifically for your audience.
If your book or writing group is reading my book, I would be happy to join you for a live Q&A session via Skype. Let me know if you are interested.
