When my 2007 book Schizophrenie Francaise was published, I did a lot of television and radio appearances to promote it. After years behind a keyboard, I thought my public speaking skills could be improved. So I joined Toastmasters of Paris - and discovered a latent passion for public speaking. Now I do it for fun, and occasionally for money. My services are for hire to run workshops and write speeches.

Vandore vs UKIP

I am very pleased to say that my debating partner and I defeated the founder of UKIP and the motion that This House Would Leave the EU at the UCL Debating Society tonight. And against all those doctors too!

My last Toastmasters of Paris speech.

I've had a wonderful learning experience with Toastmasters of Paris. The highlight ws definately winning third prize in the humourous speech competition on only my third speech. I displayed my cup of the mantlepiece for a long time. It's all packed up now, as in a few days I leave Paris for a new life in London. Thanks for all the memories guys and girls - and the speaking tips too!
