Presentation Description:
I'm available to present in classrooms and assemblies, always accompanied by my authenticated 3,000-year-old bronze dagger from Mesopotamia, alabaster jar from Egypt, and Phoenician silver coin. I've presented about the process of creativity, what it's like to be a writer, pursuing your dreams, and the writing process.
