Welcome to My World!
I know. This website is a bit all over the place. Well, that's me. All my life, I've had numerous interests, from reading Shakespeare to being a fan of baseball to loving Wayne and Shuster's Shakespearean skit about baseball.
Rather than try to narrow my interests done to a few or keep them separate, I've decided to let them all live, "cheek by jowl" as it were, right here.
So come on in, and hopefully you'll find something here you like.

Speaking
Yes, I do speak. In public. Always amazes me to read the statistics on how many people fear speaking in public more than actually dying. I've been eager to speak in public since I was about three.
I can talk for as long as you'd like – from 20 minutes to all day.
As for topics, I have a list somewhere. My most popular topic for women's or mixed adult or teen groups is "The Diamond Ring."
I also teach writing workshops.
My official page about speaking.
