Appearances

I’m available for book signings, workshops, speaking events, festivals, and other events. I would be delighted to do interviews and appear on podcasts or other media outlets. I can be contacted at the email address: boatsjj [AT] udmercy [DOT] edu . Please begin your email subject line with “Appearance Request” so it won’t be mistaken for spam.

The following are Spotify links to some of my previous podcast appearances. You can also find all of these on other podcast platforms and/or YouTube.

MOMS TALK AUTISM podcast, 3/17/25

I talk about my early life as an undiagnosed, high-masking autistic kid, and also about raising a son who’s also on the spectrum. They graciously let me talk about my book too.

POKER IN THE EARS podcast, 4/3/25

I share the spotlight in this episode. My content begins around the 52:23 mark. Unless you’re really into poker, you’ll probably want to skip the first half of this one.

INDIE READS ALOUD podcast, 12/24/25

This is me reading an excerpt from Blood Game, and just talking writing before an after.

A second appearance, where I read from Crying Call, that technically doesn’t come out until 2/4/26, the day after the book officially releases. But you can get a sneaky, early listen here.
