Hey, Abby -
I'm the programming librarian at the Essex Library in Connecticut (we're a shoreline town about halfway between New York and Boston) , and I'm wondering about your availability for an appearance here. Your book looks like a winner, especially with Essex's very sizable aging population, who seem to ask us daily here for help and information on running their new computers.
Do you charge for appearances? Have you any scheduled in our approximate vicinity any time between now and May? Let me know, please, via email when you've got a minute.

Hi Jenny,
I wanted to throw my two cents in here–I've heard Abby speak three times so far, twice at our branch libraries. At the last program someone walked up to me and said she gave “the perfect program.” So true; she gives unstintingly of her time and knowledge, and every person in each audience left enlightened, and empowered. Your library patrons will have a treat in store when Abby comes to speak.
