Exclusive Services

I have 25 years experience in the Writing & Publishinng Industry. I founded a local writers group 15 years ago and teach topics 2x a month and have served as faculty for Writers Confereces. My passion is to help Christian writers learn their craft, learn the industry, and learn to write to their target audience.

​

I am very comfortable teaching 1-1 as well as to 1,000 people. My sweet spot is less than 50 participants, which allows more engagement and interaction with writers. 

​

Virtual and in-person options are both acceptable. I can meet with your writers group, teach pre-conference learning labs and workshops, as well as conference workshops or continuing sessions. I adapt to your needs. 

​

My decades of public speaking throughout my career, as well as my experience in writing & publishing also make me an excellent option to keynote at your event.
