I can hardly wait to meet you!

My favorite aspect of author life is engaging readers. I am happy to visit your school or library for a workshop or full day. ​Following are my available workshops and author talks:

Workshop: Scene Work
What makes a scene meaningful? Which details convey the most important feelings to your readers? We'll write and edit work in this hands-on workshop. 
Audience: Tweens, Teens, or Adults 

Workshop: Character Work
How do writers create believable characters? How can you create a meaningful connection between your characters and readers? We'll write and edit work in this hands-on workshop. 
Audience: Tweens, Teens, or Adults 
​


Tandem Workshop (a week or two apart)
Finding your Story
Harness your passions to discover the story you were meant to write.
Audience: Tweens, Teens, or Adults 

Telling Your Story
Focus on how to tell your story to effectively convey your feelings and ideas. 
Audience: Tweens, Teens, or Adults 
(Not quite ready for a tandem workshop? I can teach these separately.) 



​Author Talk: How an Idea Becomes a Book

Let's talk about the whole process from single idea
​to hardcover book in book stores. 

Audience: Elementary, Tweens, Teens, or Adults 

Author Talk: My Author Story
There's the ideal way an idea becomes a book. . .and then there's the way I did it. Many readers ask about my writing process and how my first book became a novel. This is the whole story.
Audience: Elementary, Tweens, Teens, or Adults 
 

Did you have a different topic in mind? I'm happy to entertain new ideas!

Each of these hourlong visits is a 50 minute workshop or presentation plus 10 minutes allotted at the end for Q&A; each hourlong visit costs $200. If you'd like a longer visit or multiple presentations, I am happy to work with you to adjust rates. Contact me at visits@michelebacon.com so we can discuss our options.

​I look forward to hearing from you!
