I would love to come to your school or library to talk about writing and illustration. I have several programs for you to choose from. Please send me an e-mail to talk about prices or to schedule a visit!

Activity Book Writing

My activity books "Jesus Loves Me Preschool Activity Book" and "My Catholic Lent and Easter Activity Book" have recently been published by Paulist Press. I would love to bring original drawings and activities and explain to your students the process I went through to create the books.

Poetry in Action

Get your students excited about poetry! I will bring several poems that I have written and help students write and illustrate poems of their own.

Writing a Newspaper Column

See a newspaper columnist in action. I will bring some columns and talk about the process of writing a newspaper column.

Picture Book Writing

I have written several picture book manuscripts. I would love to come and share a few of them with your class or an assembly. I will read a picture book manuscript and show the dummy and talk about the process of writing a picture book from start to finish.

Writing and Illustrating

I will talk about my life as a freelance writer and illustrator. This topic would lend itself nicely to larger groups. I can bring some newspaper columns, a dummy, a few magazine articles, and some poetry. I will talk about how all different kinds of writing fills my day and show the children the different things I write about and illustrate.
