Invite author Christina Wallace to your school
Hi,
I'm Christina!
My debut book series, The Light Keeper launched in May of 2023. As of this upcoming July, there will be three books in the series, with more planned.
I am an independent publisher. This means not only am I the author behind my stories, but I am also responsible for ensuring the books are properly edited and formatted, I contract artists for the cover and interior artwork, and I am solely responsible for marketing. That sounds like a lot, right? I'll bet you're already thinking about questions that you'd like to ask me, and I know your students will have many more!
Once upon a time, I was a girl with a big dream who was taught to choose a "safe" career. My passions were something meant to be fun, but never taken seriously, until, with the support of my husband, I realized it didn't have to be that way. After graduating with a degree in business, I enrolled in a Children's Literature school and honed my writing skills, specifically with youth in mind.
Let me share my inspirational tale of how I went from a dreamer to a doer, while also sharing some inside knowledge with your students.

Christina's presence and storytelling left a lasting impact on our young audience, sparking their imaginations and fostering a love for literature. I am truly honored to provide a statement of recommendation that reflects the value Christina brings to educational settings. Her dedication to inspiring young minds through literature is commendable, and I have no doubt that Christina's future endeavors will continue to make a positive impact on students across different schools. Christina's visit was a highlight for both our students and staff, and we look forward to the opportunity of welcoming her back in the future.

What will Christina's Visit Include?
Tailored Approach
I will adjust my presentation to match the grade level of the attending students to keep them the most engaged.
Additional Resources
I will provide your school with worksheets that teachers can use to reinforce the topics I share. All work and no play isn't very fun. I also give the schools fun extras for the kids like coloring pages and word games.
Christina's Talking Points
- My journey from notebook writer to published author
- Book Basics (genre, tropes, structure, plotting)
- Live writing exercise - With student participation Christina will write the beginning of a story for all to see, explaining what she is doing and why.
Small Group Sessions Available
Do you have a select group or two who would like to work directly with an author and their work critiqued? In a small group setting, Christina will lead students through writing exercises and give detailed feedback.
