school visits via Skype
Although nothing takes the place of a real life, in-person visit, Barbara offers two types of Skype visits for schools, libraries, and book clubs.
Note: Skype visits are intended for groups that have read one or more of Barbara’s books.

30-minute Q&A
For scheduling, please contact Michele Kophs, Provato Marketing, Michele@provatomarketing.com.
These sessions are Q&A and are only for groups that have read one or more of Barbara's books.
Please send questions to Barbara via email at least 3 days before the scheduled Skype day. This allows Barbara to prepare any necessary visuals to share with the students and is helpful when audio quality is poor.
Fee: $200 (due within one week after the Skype visit)
Free 20-minute Q&A (1 per school per year; for scheduling see below)
- Barbara sets aside a number of days each school year from October to April for free 20-minute Skype sessions.
- These sessions are offered on a first come, first served basis.
- Please be aware that these sessions must be limited to 20 minutes as Barbara books several sessions back to back on one day.
- Because they are free, these slots fill up quickly. Please plan ahead.
