If you would like me to speak at your writers' group, book club, or writers' conference, email me at dowdywriter [at] aol.com (without the spaces) for details. Currently, I have no speaking engagements scheduled. I have spoken often about various topics at writers' conferences. My speaking focuses on the steps toward commercial publication. Since I'm not a self-published author,  I don't speak about pursuing self publication. I can also speak to book clubs if you want to discuss my novel collection, Chesapeake Weddings. Chesapeake Weddings is now available for $2.79 at Christianbook.com.
