A few months ago I held a raffle to raise money for my Boston Marathon Run. One of the prizes was a half-day school visit. Today, I got to visit with the awesome students at Brookside Elementary- I feel like I was the winner in this deal! #authorvisits #amwriting #kidsareawesome

My heart is so full! For these kids to have Mr. Schu as their first in-person author visit is something they will always remember. Thank you for sharing your joy with us today!! John Schu Gombert Elementary Anderson's Bookshop 🐀 #booklove #thisisaschool #authorvisits

I love doing #authorvisits in schools - admittedly they need to be #highschools , #colleges and #universities given the subjects I write about, but I love going into schools and #reading books to primary school kids!

Such a joyful experience! But #schools and #Safeguarding are…

Thanks 🙏🏾 so much to the staff and students at #StJohnPaulII in #Oakville for such a warm welcome.

I'm a 30-something writer with an Amazon fixation (forgive me). These are my all-time favorite finds.

Copywriting is the psychology of getting people to buy. Learn how to write about your product in a way that gets people to purchase (and get your copy personally reviewed by myself and professional writers):

Reading my debut book to two large groups of over 100 kids each still has me zinging with joy. They were so excited to read about plátanos as many of them eat them at home with their family. I'm grateful that I'm bilingual. #platanosarelove #author #author events #author visits

⚠️Just launched: new research about the impact of author visits in schools⚠️

Children who attend author visits are more likely to enjoy reading and writing in their free time, but in 2023 just 1 in 5 children said an author visited their school.
