I am nearly always happy to guest blog or do an interview, given a fair amount of notice. In terms of a guest blog, it’s helpful if you provide guidance as to what you’re looking for (craft, humor, how-to, anecdotal), and whether you want me to give away a book. As for interviews, please send the questions in the body of the email, no attachments, along with your request and the “need by” date.

If you’d like me to visit as a speaker or a guest, I will be happy to consider it. Honorariums begin at $300 (or a guaranteed sale of at least 50 books). Since I live in Mexico, travel, lodging and meal expenses will also apply. I’m available for school visits, where I can give a variety of presentations, including but not limited to:
• How to Draft a Book in 6 Weeks (or less)
• So You Want to be a Writer
• The Payoff of Perseverance
• Finding your True Voice
I’m also available for general Q&A and readings. I’m happy to spend the whole day at your school, but will only do presentations for grades 9 and up. I’ll also be happy to sign while I’m there. Since I live outside the US, it may be wise to invite me when I’m already planning to be in the States. In 2010, I’ll be in California & Ohio in April; California in Tennessee in July. If I’m not already in the States, I prefer events in CA and TX because those locales are the quickest / easiest for me to travel to, but it never hurts to ask!
Finally, if you want a signed bookplate (or bookmarks) and you won’t be in my vicinity this year, drop me an email. I’m happy to hook you up.
