Author Booking/Fees

SPEAKING FEES

To reduce paperwork and complexity, I have recently changed my fees to make them ALL INCLUSIVE. Fees cover honorarium, mileage, hotel, food, car rental, plane tickets, i.e. everything. These categories are based on driving distance calculated by Mapquest from downtown South Bend, Indiana.

ALL INCLUSIVE FEES FOR SCHOOL VISITS

South Bend/Mishawaka $950 per school day
Within 50 miles $1350 per school day
Within 100 miles $1600 per school day
More than 100 miles $1800 per school day (3 consecutive days preferred)

What’s Included?
Three sessions during the school day. These sessions can be with large groups or small groups.
Signings included. Extra charge for evening programs.

My husband/co-author Jeff Sayre, is available to appear as a second author for Young Author Conferences. If you are in driving distance, add $1000 to the fee and you have us both for the day.

Fees are the same for schools, libraries, and young author’s conferences.

Special Virginia Rate: I have family in Winchester, Richmond, and Williamsburg, Virginia. So if you are within 30 miles of these places, my rate is $1350 all-inclusive. 

Small events, with motivated authors/readers, are a joy.

HOW TO BOOK AN EVENT

Email me at apsayre (at) aol (dot) com with possible months or dates. I will check my calendar. Once we have agreed on dates, I will pencil them into my calendar.  I will send you a link to a contract and pre-visit materials. Once you have signed and returned the contract, I will ink the dates and you will have a confirmed, contracted visit.

My main program can be presented to large groups of up to 200.
