Read MoreMy upbeat presentation can be personalized for your school. I use my two books to spread an artsy message about writing, publishing, and creativity. I draw from my experience as a former newspaper reporter and public relations professional to bring an inspirational presentation full of personal stories, writing/publishing tips, and “insider information” about my books. A favorite moment is when I show examples of the hand-made books I created and wrote as a child. I still have dozens of them! My main talk is appropriate for Kindergarten through 5th grade.

And finally, a small-group writer's workshop could be developed to suit your school's individual needs. I can bring the field trip to your school.

Finding a real art car in Houston is fairly easy, and I have also had success scheduling them in other cities. Discuss this option with me, and let's see what we can create.
