Appearances & Events

It’s been a really difficult couple of years for everyone, and I hope you are staying safe and healthy and are reading a lot of wonderful books! I’ve been reading and making bread (but not at the same time — that would be dangerous.)

I’ve been doing a few virtual events, including school visits, and I hope that we can return to in-person events/visits very soon. But until then, if you’d like me to do a free, 20-minute virtual visit with your classroom to talk about writing or any of my books (see https://shawnkstout.com/for-teachers/ for more details), please send me an email request at shawn@shawnkstout.com.

Book business people, if you’d like me to participate in a panel or have me come to your store for a book event, please email me at shawn@shawnkstout.com.

For Media: Download my press kit here: Shawn K. Stout’s Media Kit 

Important: I support equity and inclusivity in books, as well as in the wider world. I am not available for any book events that discriminate against marginalized or underrepresented people. Period.
