WORKSHOPS AND TALKS
Getting to run workshops and presentations where I get to share my stories is the best feeling in the world! I hope to inspire wherever I go.
 
I am a full time teacher so I am unfortunately only available for bookings on weekends, school holidays and Book Week.
 
I get paid based on standard Australian Society of Author (ASA) rates.
 
You can enquire about a booking in the CONTACT section of this website. 

Silly Sounds and Scribbles Talk/PD (Recommended)

My latest and greatest offering in the presentation department! This is a unique talk that children can enjoy and teachers can take notes in. It’s a demonstration on how to run an energetic Shared Reading session with all your favorite Silly Sounds and Scribbles poetry.

My Bumbling Journey as an Arty Person​

Lots of ridiculous things happen to creative people when they chase their dreams! I talk about my experiences — the good, the bad, and the hilarious. I usually read a few stories, tell some awful jokes and do some drawing if people start to snore too loudly. I can present this talk to children or grownups.

Storybook Workshops

I teach children to create their own little narratives, which they put in their own little storybooks. We come up with wacky ideas, fold our own books, write them down and do some delightful drawings.
