Sometimes people ask me to talk

Over the past 15 years, I've been featured on several television programs discussing various cases I've covered or topics I've studied. I also routinely speak at journalism and crime conferences, podcast conventions, library events and, once, even a Shakespeare Theatre Company.
Because queries have become more frequent and difficult to schedule, I request a speaking fee to account for the time required to (re)learn a case and take time away from my day job and family. If traveling and hotel accommodations are required, I ask that those be covered as well. Please understand that as much as I'd love to talk to everyone for free, it just isn't possible. I have a reputation for being relatable, candid, prepared, thoughtful and, without fail, irreverent even when I'm on good behavior. I must do an OK job as I've been re-invited to appear on shows multiple times to cover different cases.
