Would you like to have me come to speak to your classroom or discussion group? I can do that either in person or virtually over the Internet via Skype! Interested in booking me as a conference presenter? How about a book signing? Just want to let me know what you think of my books? Have questions? I’d love to hear from you. Please scroll down to send me an email.

I am available to speak to your adult or youth group, in your classroom, library, bookstore, or club. I am happy to tailor an event (complete with visual aids) to your specific needs--whether those be working with students on the craft of writing, entertaining and educating an adult audience, encouraging students, or making an informational presentation on what it's like to be a published author.

In my multi-media poetry writing

workshop, I love to get the students

to engage their imaginations.

"Claudia did a fabulous job working with our creative writing group that includes a range of children in grades 1 through 6. The children were engaged during the presentation and enthusiastic about sharing their ideas during the shared poetry activity. They were excited about meeting a local author." --Elizabeth Lamonia and Amanda Whitt, Children's Librarians, Highlands Ranch Library, Highlands Ranch, Colorado

"What a wonderful treat to have Claudia at our school! Claudia's time with our students was both thought provoking and motivating. Students will never look at writing the same! Thanks for the opportunity for our kids to work with a real author." --Debby Hoesterey, Assistant Principal, Lasley Elementary, Lakewood, Colorado

I enjoy making out-of-state

presentations such as this one

in New York.

"Claudia's presentation to the children was outstanding. The students were motivated and enjoyed the PowerPoint presentation of The Christmas Tree Cried. A great book for all children!" --Frances DeLuca, Principal, Our Lady of Perpetual Help School, South Ozone Park, New York

"Claudia gave a wonderful presentation! Her enthusiasm about being a writer was very inspiring!" --Donna Norvey, Borders Books at Arapahoe Crossings, Aurora, Colorado

The following are some of my writing workshops:

The Poet Within (a poetry writing workshop based on the style of my Do You See What I See? books)

Crafting Colorado Historical Fiction (a session geared specifically to Colorado 4th-graders)

Fashioning Fantastic Fiction

Non-fiction Writing: Research is Fun!

For those interested in a spiritual take on why/how I came to write Awakening, there’s the following presentation, appropriate for preteens and older:

You Talking to Me? Hearing and Answering God’s Call in Your Life

"Motivating and knowledgeable and well-prepared. Claudia had a great impact on our program, models and moms. Thank you!" --Natalia Fletcher, on behalf of the Pure Fashion Mother/ Daughter Luncheon

"Claudia is a terrific presenter! She kept her listeners riveted and sent them away charged up with a need to read. I recommend a visit from her unreservedly." --John Peters, Senior Children's Librarian, Central Children's Room, the New York Public Library

"Excellent and inspirational. Able to reach all grade levels. Informative. A+." --Sr. Marilyn Beyers, Principal, Pauline Memorial Catholic School, Colorado Springs, Colorado

With students at St. Mary’s

Elementary School in Littleton,

Colorado.

"Our school was thrilled to host Claudia recently at our Art and Author Night. What an engaging and enjoyable presentation! All in our audience learned about publishing in a fun way." --Becky Weide, Library/Media Specialist, Falcon Elementary, Falcon, Colorado

"Our three 5th grade classes were on their best behavior this week when Claudia McAdam captivated their interest with her love of stories and the written word. They were fascinated by her versatility in genres coupled with her success in publishing, even self-publishing. It is rare to be 'treated' to an author's reading of non-fiction. Not only do we highly recommend her visit to other schools, but we look forward to her return visit to STM!" --Karen Schlipman, Librarian, St. Thomas More School, Centennial, Colorado
