^{I am available to talk to groups either as a keynote speaker or as a panelist about any of my areas of expertise: education abroad; American (and other) writers in Paris; downsizing the family home; writing, editing, and proofreading.}

^{Much of my recent public speaking has been in connection with my first book, Moving On: A Practical Guide to Downsizing the Family Home.  My coauthor and I have spoken to church and community groups, at retirement communities and libraries, in bookstores and coffeehouses, and at book fairs and festivals across the country.  You can see a list of some of the places we've been, and topics we've addressed, on our website: www.movingonthebook.com/website/index.php?movingon_events.}
