Author Visit Requirements

When visiting your school or organisation, the following would be warmly appreciated:

• Clear indication and confirmation of dates and session times, well in advance
• School address, parking advice and clear directions to the front office/venue
• School’s phone number and mobile contact in case of emergency
• Readings spaced as closely together as possible (no breaks in between), with the final session finishing by 2.30pm at the latest
• The children’s ages and number of students attending
• A smartboard setup in one space, if at all possible, so I’m not required to move between sessions
• Someone on hand with technical knowledge to ensure smartboard setup doesn’t go awry (this problem occurs around 80% of the time)
• If there is to be a book signing, an approximate required amount of books, in advance
• A glass of water and a cup of tea would be lovely!

I bring a USB stick and laptop with me and arrive 15-20 minutes before presentation to set up.

Please email for current charges. I have a 2-reading minimum and a fee discount if a book signing is organised. My charges are current with ASA recommendations.

I have public liability insurance to $10 million.
