Conference Presentations

For years, before I was published, I learned so much from other authors at writing conferences and workshops.  Because of that, I love to present at conferences to help others achieve their dream of becoming published authors.  I have presented at multiple conferences - the highlight of which was the international SCBWI Conference in LA.

My presentations are:

Captivated our 2nd and 3rd graders

"As an author, teacher, and mother, Lori is a down-to-earth person to whom the children related--as she read enthusiastically from her endearing animal tales. Lori captivated the attention of our Second and Third Graders while she encouraged them to shout out the rhyming words, which she purposely omitted

Captivated our 2nd and 3rd graders

"As an author, teacher, and mother, Lori is a down-to-earth person to whom the children related--as she read enthusiastically from her endearing animal tales. Lori captivated the attention of our Second and Third Graders while she encouraged them to shout out the rhyming words, which she purposely omitted, during the retelling of her book, 1 Zany Zoo! All of the kids participated and had a blast predicting the winning, rhyming words! Lori’s characters and humor delighted our teachers and our students of all grade levels!"

Michele Marr, Second Grade Teacher

Fantastic author to Skype with

"Lori was a fantastic author to Skype with.  Our Kindergarten students really enjoyed asking her questions and hearing her read 1 Zany Zoo.  They all loved the book Cock-a-Doodle Oops and wanted us to read it over and over again. Altogether the experience was one our teachers and students will not forget."
