• The Dynamics of Domestic Abuse: Tactics, Myths & Social Norms
• Decide, Don’t Slide: Understanding the Difference between Healthy, Unhealthy and Abusive Relationships
• Childhood Domestic Abuse: The Impact of DV on Child Witnesses

Babysitting Your Book: Notes from a Nonfiction Ghostwriter and Kinship Caregiver

2022. Comments from my presentation facilitator, Sharman Apt Russell:

“Andie had a lively and fun presence, using gestures and enthusiastic body language to convey her interest and passion in her subject. She handled a problem with technology–midway through her presentation–with grace and ease. Her friendly and engaged manner was one of her greatest strengths. […] Her handout complemented her presentation very well, with some good specific tips and specific apps that I think many writers will appreciate.”
