Speaker Availability

I am available to be a speaker.

If you are available to be a speaker please list topics that you speak on here.

I could speak about the value of a properly proofread book, particularly for writers planning to self-publish.
I also could speak in general about my book, "Death Beyond the Willows," and another nonfiction (memoir) book I published in 2020 titled "Memories of Marshall/Ups and Downs of Growing Up in a Small Town."
