Steps to prepare an effective and entertaining talk and deliver it with confidence
A useful guide for pastors, group leaders, coaches, & storytellers, Ruth Stotter’s little guide will boost your confidence if you are new to public speaking, and it will remind experienced speakers of the basics that insure success in front of large audiences and small.  The author’s experience as a college instructor and as a professional storyteller gives her the unique perspective to coach beginning and seasoned speakers.   Arranged in an “info-bit” format, this is the kind of guide that can be read and re-read during short breaks from other work. Though small, her book is a convenient and practical guide.

“Many tips for speakers, storytellers and my fellow pastors in a concise, readable, and direct format. I wish I had this book decades sooner!”
—Mark Berry, pastor and healing arts therapist

“You’re On! Is sprinkled throughout with wonderful little gems of stories, perfect for both beginning and experienced speakers.”
—Robert Stevens Fish, professional speaker and author

“The advice in You’re On! Is not only easily digested, it is downright palatable.  These lucid steps are easy to read and immediately apply.”
—Jackson Gillman, internationally featured storyteller and stand-up comic

“Speech-giving can be fun. If you don’t believe me, read this book. You’re On! is the rare book that helps both the novice and the experienced speaker.”
—Sally Champe, Director of Volunteers, American Red Cross, San Rafel, California
