  • Thu, Apr 29 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Cut Through the Noise: Build your “online platform” without selling your soul, or losing your mind
    Blogs, websites, Facebook, Twitter, forums, message boards, online tours, podcasts– authors, illustrators and performers are being urged more than ever to build online “platforms” and personal brands, not just for marketing, but as the base of our careers. But how much do we need and what can we realistically expect to achieve online? Jill Murray, a YA author with over 11 years experience building web sites and marketing plans for Canada’s biggest (and smallest!) media and cultural institutions shows you how to start building the “web presence” that works for you. (Pointe-Claire Public Library, 100 Douglas Shand, Pointe-Claire, QC)

I’d be delighted to come speak at speak, read, or give workshops at your school, festival, library or event. Please have a look at my bookings package to see how I work and what kinds of things I can speak about. (Note: New package coming soon, for the release of Rhythm & Blues!)

In Ontario I am represented by the Authors Booking Service.

In Quebec I am a part of the Writers In CEGEPs programme sponsored by UNEQ and the QWF.

I have spoken at CEGEPs, high schools, junior high schools, festivals and libraries in Quebec, Ontario and the Maritimes (complete list coming soon), before audiences ranging from pre-teens to adults. I’d be happy to work with you to tailor a lecture or workshop to the needs of your students, audience or curriculum. Just get in touch at mail [at] jillmurray [dot] com, and we can take it from there!
