I have performed at literary festivals, school assemblies, and in libraries all over the country. I adore running poetry and story workshops that celebrate the fun to be had with words.

My workshops are always tailored to age group and can accommodate any specific requests (e.g. topics to cover or poetic forms).

I’d love to hear from you, whether you have any questions about me or life on Saturn.

Please either use the form provided or email me at jsellarswrites@gmail.com
