You don't have to be an extrovert to be a brilliant speaker.
As an author or creative, you know the world demands more visibility than ever. Festivals, conferences, podcasts, panels — the opportunities are everywhere. But what if the thought of standing in front of an audience makes you want to hide in a quiet room with a good book?
I'm a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, an award-winning creative entrepreneur, and a professional speaker who has graced stages around the world — from the London Book Fair to conferences across multiple continents. I'm also an introvert.
In this comprehensive and practical guide, I share everything I've learned over a decade of professional speaking — proving that introverts don't just survive on stage, they can thrive.
Inside, you'll discover:
- How to find your authentic speaking voice instead of faking an extroverted persona
- Practical strategies for managing your energy before, during, and after events
- How to craft compelling talks, create awesome slides, and captivate any audience
- Tips for tackling anxiety and growing real confidence — not just performing it
- How to get speaking work, set your fees, and build a profitable speaking business
- Ways to create multiple streams of income from your speaking, including books, courses, and consulting
- Marketing strategies including content marketing, email lists, and building your speaker brand
Whether you're preparing for your first reading at a local bookshop or building a professional speaking career alongside your creative work, this book gives you a clear, introvert-friendly roadmap to get there.
Includes ready-to-use templates: a pre-speaking booking sheet, event checklist, reflection questions, and a sample sales page.
Stop waiting until you "feel ready." Start speaking on your own terms.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Greenworld Books, Arlington, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
