Need a moderator for your next YA event? I love chatting to authors and other industry professionals about books and creating a sense of community at events! I can also speak to book clubs, social media for writers, and YA writing in general. If you'd like to get in touch about how we can work together, use the contact form below.
​
I am also available for writing workshops for adults or young people.
​
I charge ASA rates, but these can be negotiated based on the needs and situation of your organisation.
