Royce Writes: The Skype Visit

Technology is a beautiful thing. In June, I used it to virtually visit students 3,000 miles away from the comfort (and safety) of my living room.

“Thank you so much!  The students LOVED Skyping with you!  I’m looking forward to the next discussion…” – Kimberly Bramfeld, Librarian Edmund J. O’Neal Middle School of Excellence

Skype visits have been a great option for me – a busy writer, lawyer and dad – to connect with fans without a lot of travel. And schools love it, because I offer them for free. The only payment I require is for students and their teachers to prepare by reading part or all of the book and creating a list of questions to ask ahead of time.

Royce Writes: The School Visit

I am looking forward to an upcoming school visit with students at Edmund J. O’Neal Middle School in Albany, NY next month, but I won’t be traveling there to do it.

Their wonderful librarian, Kimberly Bramfeld, noticed I offer free Skype sessions. Skype is a brilliant and convenient way for me to connect with readers and for schools to give students the experience of meeting a real, live author. Well, virtually live.

I’ve had years of public speaking experience and adapt my presentations to fit any audience – whether in-person, on Skype, or at professional conferences.

To make it the best experience possible, I strongly advise teachers/librarians to prepare their students by having them read, or listen to, the book that is the subject of the visit. In this case, it’s The Dead Boys .
