I offer a free 20-30 minute Q&A for groups who have read any of my books.

Advice on making your author visit a success, from author and media specialist Toni Buzzeo:

Testimonials

“Stacy’s program was terrific. She kept her audience in rapt attention, and judging by the multitude of hands waving in the air at the program’s end, she also sparked quite a few imaginations. Stacy is a friendly, knowledgeable speaker and I would heartily recommend her.” —Marla Martin, Woodbury Public Library, CT

“Your presentation fit our writing and reading studies perfectly. I was so pleased to see this meaningful connection! I thank you from the bottom of my heart on behalf of students and faculty of ULS. Please come back anytime.” —Adriana Hollenbeck, University Lake School, Hartland, WI
