Overview

I teach creative writing and would love to host a writing event at your campus or next corporate event!
My words have been featured in many online and print forums, including Her Heart Poetry, Quail Bell Magazine, Fine Print Paper, and the Los Angeles Times.
I prefer colleges, university campuses, coffee shops, bars, private parties, and book stores.
I would not be a very good fit for church or family organizations, sorry!

Additional booking notes

Low lighting is best! If you can offer dim lights, then that is great for me. I can provide candles and incense to help set the mood. Just let me know.
Set it and forget it sound! If all I have to do when I get there is make sure the mic is loud enough, then that is best for me, and best for the crowd.
A comfortable chair or stool. Doesn't have to be fancy. But nothing wobbly please.
