I enjoy presenting to students, teachers, librarians, parents, and writers of any age and look forward to the possibility of visiting your school, library, or conference sometime soon. Since my books cover a wide range of reading levels, I can tailor my presentations to the interests of students, grades K-12. I also enjoy giving workshops for teachers, librarians, parents, and college students. Additional school visit information packet is available upon request.

"Collaboration with writers of any age can be very powerful. What we professional writers do is what student writers can do, too - discover our voices, write about what we care about, share our writing, and work on revision."
