Events

Interacting with students is my favorite thing about being an author! Presentations are generally $350 per class period with discounts to Title 1 schools. Book sales are encouraged and much appreciated, personalized copies available.

Free, 15-minute virtual interactions via Skype, Google Hangouts, etc. are available to those classes using Bleed, Blister, Puke, and Purge. A more extensive online author visit can be arranged at $125 per class period.
