Author Presentations
I offer Author Presentations in person or on Zoom.
The main topics are my secret dream of becoming a writer (despite finding spelling difficult), negotiating life with ADHD, and the story behind my children's books, The House on Hawthorn Road and The Spirit of Loughmoe Abbey.
This presentation inspires attendees to follow their passion and value difference.
During my presentation, I talk about the ups and downs of life and my self doubts about becoming a writer.
I relate the story of trying to get my books published - and never giving up - until it finally happened quite by chance when I had given up all hope!
My message is that everyone is original and unique, and that difference can be our greatest strength!
This talk is particularly helpful to those with dyslexia and neurodivergence. I discuss bullying, anxiety and feeling different.
The main character in my novel, The House on Hawthorn Road, has dyslexia and the main character in The Spirit of Loughmoe Abbey has ADHD.
I promote reading, writing stories, and keeping a journal. As well as giving my top tips on how to write creatively.
I always give time for lots of questions.
- An author visit lasts approx 60 mins.
- I can do up to two visits on the one day.
- I am open to working with large groups.
Testimonials
Thank you so much for your wonderful and engaging presentation today. Your talk was so inspiring from start to finish. You could see how interested the boys were from their questions and your story is one that most definitely will inspire them going forward in whatever dream they follow."
The event with Megan Wynne was fantastic. Megan really captured the imagination of the children and was very engaging.
The children really enjoyed the event. She would definitely be an author we would welcome again in Pearse Street!
Megan's talk was both entertaining and inspiring to the children and teachers alike. She has the ability to speak to the children in a very mature yet child friendly way. The anecdotes about her life were both funny and thought provoking which captured the children's attention. Her passion for reading and writing is infectious."
