Please email me to see what dates I am available to do this for you. Also check out some photos and clips here There is no fee for church groups. I love speaking to the relief society and youth and feel that it has its own rewards.  Topics of  particular interest to me are achieving your dreams by making and setting goals, Living Happy, and the importance of literacy.  Because so much of our nation's progress and well being depends on literacy for everyone, I am passionate about this topic.  I believe that by increasing the awareness of how important it is to read in the home and to set that standard and example for our children, we can change the face of our society for the better. There is no fee for smaller book club meetings, but I do bring books with me to sell. For school engagements, Festivals, or writing groups, the fees truly depend on the situation. Since I live so far away from everything, I ask that my travel expenses are covered. If there are other fees required it will depend on the time and travel involved. Please email me to discuss what you have in mind.   Endorsements Absolutely wonderful! Mrs. Wright involved preschool children in writing a poem. She can keep 4 year olds to 50 year olds spellbound.
