New authors often struggle to get started writing and keep going until their book is written and published. As a bestselling author, nonfiction book coach, and ghostwriter/copy editor for more than 20 years, I've developed strategies that work for me and my clients. In my interview I'll include strategies like: naming your book and designing a mock cover; creating your book outline/table of contents; setting a writing schedule; getting accountability; creating a publishing timeline; setting and celebrating short term goals and milestones; finding comparable books to model; getting clear about your reasons for writing and your readers' benefit for reading your book; overcoming internal and external roadblocks; and much more.

Join me as I delve into the intricate process of transforming fleeting ideas into captivating stories. In this presentation, I'll share my unique approach to content creation, exploring the journey from initial inspiration to the final manuscript. Discover the techniques I use to self-publish my content. Whether you're an aspiring author or an experienced writer looking for fresh insights, this session will provide valuable tools and strategies to enhance your storytelling craft. Let's embark on this creative adventure together and turn your ideas into ink.

How to navigate the landscape of writing with authenticity, especially in the face of intersecting identities (Women, Black, Felon, ex Stripper, all the things)? Finding the balance between sharing what is personal and holding what is private to ensure you reach your audience while maintaining your identity.

I will be exploring the benefits of multi-author projects by sharing insights on how collaborations amplify your reach, brand your business, and can make an impact on your bottom line.
