I'm always open to performing my work and to meeting people. If you'd like me to come perform or lead a workshop or take part in a discussion, feel free to give me a shout.
Please don't send me writing; I have enough to read as it is. If you're looking for someone to read your work, seek a local writing group or ask someone whose opinion you trust.
