I give many readings and talks, and appear at many science-fiction conventions all over the world, often as Guest of Honor. If you'd like to enquire about booking a speaking engagement or convention appearance, email me at sawyer@sfwriter.com (I've provided a few quotes from event organizers who have booked me previously).
