Carolyn is a popular presenter at writers’ conferences including San Diego State’s conference, Dayton University’s Erma Bombeck Writers Workshop, and several Greater Los Angeles Writers Conferences at Valley College in Los Angeles. Another favorite was Bookbaby’s first writer’s conference in Philadelphia and one of her proudest was to be of service to PEN’s USA Fellows program at Antioch University in Del Mar, CA. two years in a row.
Her presentations at tradeshows and for writing, retailing and other professional organizations often earns her praise from attendees who say something similar to this from Mar Preston, author of No Dice: “I really enjoyed your presentation yesterday and learned so much my ears are three inches farther apart.”
The author was an instructor for UCLA’s renowned Writers’ Program and also earned an UCLA Extension Instructor Development Program Certificate from that school. Her favorite classes were an ethics class and Pam Kelly’s class on public speaking which she managed to repeat three times just for the thrill of it.
She was also founder and facilitator of a critique group for the Glendale Library System

LET CAROLYN HELP WITH CONFERENCES,
WORKSHOPS, RADIO and TV APPEARANCES…
Carolyn’s mother helped her memorize poems and dramatic sketches for beauty contests back in decades when the TV program Miss America was a viable route to a variety of careers for young women. She didn’t think much about those skills learned at her mother’s knee until she realized a skill for the dramatic might help with her book marketing and speaking. More recently she has been a finalist for Norwegian Cruise Lines Star Search and has appeared in TV commercials for the likes of Time-Life CDs, Marlboro, Blue Shield, Apple, Lenscrafters, and Disney Cruise Lines (Japan).
