About Me
When I write for a young reader, my hope is to create a story that becomes as meaningful to them as so many stories were to me growing up.
I love meeting young readers, and over the years I have presented at dozens of schools, libraries, bookstores and literary festivals.
I am also passionate about helping anyone who wants to develop their own writing. For over twenty years I have taught creative writing to college students, run creative writing workshops for kids and teens, and offered one-on-one editing and writing coaching to adults.
In the off-hours, I can be found doing a poor imitation of a dolphin in my local pool.
Kind Words
“Andrew is a strong and dynamic storyteller who managed to get even the most reluctant readers engaged! The kids loved the different voices as well as the animated way he told the story. At the end, they were excited to ask questions and also full of hugs.”
—Agata Kaminski, Teacher Librarian, Kateri School, Kahnawake, Quebec
