It was a pleasure to host Regina for an author talk. Regina was well spoken, professional and well prepared for the event. The community thoroughly enjoyed hearing about her adventures, quest for love, her writing and publishing experience.

A great author talk that was very well received at Ballina Library. There was genuine interest in the subject matter and many questions were asked and answered by the wonderful author, Regina.

A wonderful event! Regina is a natural and engaging speaker – it was fascinating to hear about her remarkable journey, as well as an interesting insight into the publishing process. Very enjoyable!

The Hinchinbrook Shire Library was enriched today by experiencing Regina's very self-aware recount of her adventure filled life so far.

We were blessed with Regina's presence, her words and energy.

Leonie - Librarian

Hinchinbrook Shire Library

Same Height Control

Regina presented a talk which was informative, engaging and very professional. Each of our attendees commented on how much they enjoyed the talk, especially the way that Regina engaged with everyone through the talk, making it feel more like a conversation rather than just information shared.
