Need a guest speaker to discuss writing, creativity, discipline and the art of practice or other subjects? BANG THE KEYS author Jill Dearman is happy to pack a sporty valise filled with wisdom and witticisms (and an eye pillow for overnight stays) and hop aboard the freight train of fun you have planned for your writers conference or other creativity-related event. She is often called upon to do private one-on-one consults with participants, and is able to judge contests (preferably that involve writers racing across lawns holding plastic spoons in their mouths with miniature balls balanced on said spoons). Jill also is happy to offer up a free writing or editing consult for winners, and to share a glass of cognac or cocoa with the rest of the contestants. Tired of hearing generic spiels? Then let Jill give your participants a talk or specially-tailored workshop to remember.

And she is always at the ready to teach Bang the Keys-related workshops on such subjects as “Four Steps to a Lifelong Writing Practice,” “Eight Ingredients to a Delicious PLOT-which” and “Channel-Surfing & Other Meditation Techniques for Writers.”

Finally, consider Jill to BANG THE KEYNOTE! at your conference.
She’ll talk; you provide the dog and pony.

Just make the coffee strong but not too bitter.
