EVENTS
I enjoy talking about my writing
with folks of all ages, and showing them pictures. I've presented programs
to more than 100 groups -- book talks, writing workshops, and slide shows.
My audiences have included schools (elementary through high school), libraries,
museums, historical societies, retirement communities, senior citizen groups,
colleges, and community service clubs and scout troops.
Here are
a few of the great engagements I have had.
