Events
I love doing author visits to schools, libraries, bookstores, PTA events for both students and parents, and anything else you might be interested in! I am happy to tailor each visit to what will be most beneficial to you and your audience but some ideas are speaking about my journey to becoming an author, the inspiration for my stories (especially not seeing my community represented in children’s literature), Q&As and guided writing workshops for all ages. Contact me, I’d love to hear from you.

Author Visit at Beit Rabban Middle School
The most unflattering photos of me at the BEST event 😭. Also, I’m not sure why I’m looking down as I actually spoke off the cuff — I think the second photo must be from when I was reading a short excerpt from Honey and Me. In any case, I had the most wonderful time…
Book Signing at Scattered Books!
Thank you Laura and all the staff at Scattered Books in Chappaqua, NY for supporting Honey and Me in a wonderful pre-holiday book signing. Special treat to see a friend who used to live in London and now lives in New York come in with her daughter 💜
