Want the tour to hit your company or organization?

If you have a venue or know of one, leave a comment or contact me.  All talks are free, and I give priority to the places likely to get me the biggest crowds, preferably crowds of people who like to buy books :)  Please forward this on to folks you know who might fit the bill.

UMass Boston, Heally Library, 11th FL

  • For a Seattle venue, I recommend doing an Amazon “fishbowl”–basically a book promotion talk given to Amazon employees. I think you can reach them at fishbowl@amazon.com; if that doesn’t work, I know some folks inside Amazon who could get through.

  • One other suggestion: Get in touch with Toastmasters. That’s a big, well-established, national organization of people interested in public speaking, and they have regional offices and local clubs all over the place.

  • So when are you coming to the UK?

  • I love the UK, but no current plans to visit soon. I’ll def post on the blog if that changes.

  • Book Passage book store either in S.F. or marin. I am a paid speaker + former WSJ reporter and enjoyed your book and would help draw a crowd here in the Bay Area
