Workshops and Public Speaking

I've been presenting writing workshops since 1997. Before that, I presented workshops on breastfeeding to groups ranging from new mothers, to health professionals, and once to a college psych class at 8 am on a Monday morning. I'm pretty sure the entire football team was in the front row! After that particular class, talking about writing subjects never seemed overly daunting!

I've presented sixty workshops from Maryland to San Diego and points in between, and I did my first keynote speach in '10. My writing schedule has become more intense, but I always enjoy getting out and meeting new friends, so if you're interested in having me speak at an upcoming conference, or meeting, drop me an email at HollyJacobs1 (at) gmail.com.
