Please note I am a disabled, one-person team. So the best thing you can do is be patient, and if I say no or don't get back to you, it's nothing personal. I have to choose how I spend my time quite carefully to get anything done. I don't have the capacity or resources to subcontract work to other people. I also live with both a thyroid condition and a form of neurodivergence that forces me to manage my energy and mental health carefully.

 If this is an urgent inquiry, please let me know your deadline, and I will prioritise you accordingly. Otherwise, give me a few business days, and if you don't hear back, bug me again!

All calls and meetings require at least 48 hours notice to accommodate my neurodivergent way of thinking and need to plan to process what's expected of me properly. To understand a little bit better how best to work around my chronic conditions, check out my access rider page before reaching out.

Currently, I alternate between Marrakech (Morocco), GMT+1, and my hometown of Toronto (Canada), EST/EDT. I only answer emails between the hours of 10 AM and 5 PM (on weekdays, not during internationally celebrated holidays unless it's an emergency) in both time zones. 

​Before contacting me, keep in mind that I do not​ offer any of the following:
  • Ad space, affiliate endorsements, or freelance work opportunities.
  • Advice on disability advocacy, starting a freelance business, or pitching publishers or editors.
On a selective basis, depending on my availability, I am open to being contacted about the following:
  • Freelance writing, editing, and public speaking work you want to commission me to do, not for "exposure", as a pro bono thing, etc. The only pro bono work I do these days is for the advocacy groups I am already involved in.
  • 1-on-one coaching on traditional publishing for first-time disabled authors. This is a service I offer.
  • Press engagements for all media outlets relating to my subject-matter expertise as an author, speaker, etc., in the form of journalists and content creators seeking to feature me. This is not something I will do as a pro-bono media voice for companies, charities, etc. All endorsements of specific causes are based on my own opinion, not upon request.
  • Promotional event invites for my book. E.G.: readings, signings, Q&As, etc.
I am not hiring, so please don't contact me in hopes of securing a job. I am not hiring and never will be. All cold pitches for your freelance services will be ignored because the answer is always no.
Once you have read all the above, reach out via the form below or email me directly if that's a much more accessible option for you:
