Speaking
N. Griffin also loves to speak to groups of adults and is happy to address readers, writers (both published and unpublished), teachers, librarians and booksellers.
For writers for children and young adults, presentation topics can include:

- Generating ideas for plot based on a desired theme.
- Characters: how to create them and invite them to come alive on the page.
- Setting: using setting as an effective corollary to plot and theme.
- Publicity: how to effectively market your book so it reaches its best audience.
- Any other topic useful to your group!
For teachers and librarians, topics can include:
- The publishing process: from idea to agent to publisher to finished book!
- Working with children around themes. Themes can include compassion, solving problems, friendship, language, learning or any other theme useful to your group and relevant to my books.
- Any other topic useful to your group!
For booksellers, topics can include:
- Partnering with writers to work for social change in a community
- Putting the Writer to Work: How an Author Can Help a Bookstore Increase Sales and Reach New Readers.
