Author and Illustrator: My presentations
If you can provide an easel and a pad of paper, I'll bring a projector, a marking pen and a sense of humor.
o
At your school, I'll...
- Give a brief recap of my exciting life, telling the students
how I became what I am today.
- Read (while showing the illustrations — see "projector" above)
and talk about my books.
- Discuss my writing — how I do it and how I come up with ideas.
- Explain how I work on illustrations.
Give a few quick lessons in cartooning.
I will spend half a day at your school, giving a presentation in the gym and/or visiting multiple classrooms... your choice. I would read the books while showing the illustrations on a provided screen and then explain how I do my drawings and how I do my writing.
o
- I charge $325 a day.
- Plus expenses (outside of the Portland area) (Portland, Oregon) (not that other one) — for getting there and getting back — and for a place to sleep while I'm there.
I would like to be able to sell signed copies of my books, at a discounted price of $10 each, to the students who want to buy them.
(Dog not included.)
