My services
Book Readings
Stories have a special way of touching hearts and connecting us all. Through my book reading sessions, I bring stories to life with warmth, emotion, and imagination. Whether it’s cozy family gathering, school event, or community reading, each session is filled with meaning, laughter, and love for the written word.
Book Signings and “Meet the Author Events”
A book signing is more than just an autograph. This is a chance to connect, share stories, and celebrate the power of words with readers face to face. During each signing event, I take time to engage with guests and answer questions about my writing journey. Every signature carries a personal message of appreciation and connection because I believe every reader is a part of the story.
Story Time Workshop: Create Your Own Book
Spark your imagination and let your creativity shine! During this interactive workshop, I lead a joyful story time followed by a guided activity where each child creates their very own mini book. We explore characters, settings, and feelings. Afterwards, the kids will write, draw, and assemble a keepsake they can proudly take home.
