At our Readers Cup event in August, Taryn spoke with passion about her writing process. She really connected with the audience of young adult readers and their families. Her talent as a writer clearly extends to speaking about her characters and their stories. Taryn's enthusiasm to support our event shows how much she values reading and the importance of promoting this to young people.

We had the opportunity to listen to Jess Black speak during the Newcastle Writer’s Festival. The students found her presentation entertaining and very interesting. Listening to stories from Jess’ youth and her love for animals and the pleasure she received from their many adventures were both enjoyable and engaging. Like the books Jess has written, she really had the ability to relate to the children and take their imaginations on a memorable journey. During the presentation Jess was able to [...]

Thank you for recommending Lucia for this year’s Literature Festival Day. It was a huge success and we have had wonderful feedback from students and teachers.

Our teachers were especially impressed by the practical nature of Tim's presentation. Absolutely worth every penny.

With his catchy hip hop beats, raps about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and the exploration of Macbeth – affectionately referred to during [...]

I just needed to let you know how inspired you left my 9 yr old daughter after your visit to PLC this week. She actually slept with your autograph under her pillow! She loves to write stories, and whatever you said made it, (and I quote), "the best day in her life". I shall definitely buy your books so she may continue to be inspired.

Deb was a very engaging speaker and performer. The children really enjoyed the visit and have been madly borrowing her books. Deb pitched her talk to each year level and managed to have everyone laughing and learning at their level - including the teachers.

Once again Speakers Ink provided a wonderful service. You are my first point of call for organising speakers when I need to. Speakers Ink does a great job and your costs are very reasonable given what is delivered. I do look forward to working with you again.
