How does on go about coordinating public speaking? I'm just looking for ideas people have about where they would speak and how they would get the opportunity.

presentations

I've recently done a couple presentations at county libraries which were very well attended. I plan to do signings there too, and this helps to generate interest for my book.

Basically, I enquired and was told to write up a proposal on my subject, and of course you would want to stress your expertise, or figure out something that people would be interested to hear about. Avoid controversial subjects and stress interesting points of whatever presentation you'd want to give.

I also contacted a holistic center who booked two separate presentations.I'm looking around for other places to do the same.Worked for me! Good luck!
