Welcome!

I am delighted to have so many visitors to my web site.

1- Please email me if you'd like to be on my mailing list. I am finishing a new book, and I would love to get in touch with you when it's heading for book stores.

2- Since Detour was published, I have been a guest lecturer at over seventy universities and organizations across the country. I am currently booking lectures for 2010 and 2011--and I hope you'll soon bring me to your neck of the woods to speak. You can email me, or click on Speaker above to get more info and read testimonials from people who have booked me before. In the coming year, I have speaking engagements in Ventura, California (05/05), Santa Clara, California (05/07), Atlanta, Georgia (6/28), San Francisco, California (7/23), and Verona, NY (10/29).

3- I will be teaching an online memoir class in July. Please email me for more information!
