As an author, I visit school groups and clubs. I offer interactive programs for groups of all ages - elementary school through adult about goal-setting, finding a healthy life balance, and the book publishing process. A menu of my author visit topics is available on the "Programs" page of the Balanced Steps website.

My business partner, Sheila Schencke, and I also provide hands-on/minds-on science and math cross-curricular workshops for elementary school teachers and non-book-related goal setting workshops for students. Sheila is an award-winning administrator and master teacher with teaching experience ranging from kindergarten through graduate school.

You can follow my blog Girl Who Loves to Run at: www.balancedsteps.blogspot.com. I discuss life-balance (home life, work, fitness, etc.), healthy choices, family and running. I recently added book reviews, focusing primarily on books from independent or small presses (children's books & fitness titles). You can also find me blogging at Bookieboo.com, which is a fitness and parenting related site for women. [less]
