Excited to speak in Charlotte on Saturday, May 10!
Hello!
I am stopping by to share that my speaking engagement is not too far away – only 3 weeks on Saturday, May 10!
I am excited to have been invited to be a part of a special international effort to encourage and empower women via speaking.
One Woman CA was founded by Sharla Brown in Canada. Her organization has spread globally, with speaking tour stops all the way in Bali, to Atlanta – and Charlotte!

Tomorrow (Friday, March 21) is my birthday! To celebrate this year, I am doing something new! I launched my radio show “Love Worth Reading” on WDRB Radio, a nationally syndicated non-profit radio station based in Charlotte NC.
My debut show airs tomorrow (March 21) at 9:30am on www.WDRBmedia.comI will air every Friday at 9:30amET. Tune in to listen for 15 minutes! It is my desire to host a longer show in the future, but this is a worthwhile start.

I plan to interview authors, book publishers, literary agents, etc. as well, so if you want to be interviewed and get a copy of the fully produced show for future use, let me know! There will be a fee for the produced show recording.
And…we are inviting sponsors to feature your company on the show! Let me know if you want to be featured in a 30-second commercial during our airtime. There will be a fee for advertising.
This is the NEXT NEW THING! I am determined to walk through every single door that swings open for me, and find the time to manage it all!
Listen tomorrow, and come back here and share what you think about it!
I accepted an offer to joinwww.emboldenmediagroup.com as a Production Editor! I will take my skills that I’ve developed over the years and support Jevon Bolden for independent publishing clients.
My business will not close, but instead I will be focused on other areas, such as speaking. I have accepted that life must shift, and I am welcoming the shift as I continue doing the things that I believe I am called to do.
I just hosted our first mini writing retreat for 2025 yesterday, and so many things were swirling around in my mind before, during, and after our retreat.
One thing that came to me at full force was this message:
This may sound self-explanatory or simple, but we rarely think of self-doubt as being equivalent to unbelief.
If we are authors who feel that pull or nudge to write, and we doubt ourselves, we are saying that:
our message doesn’t matter.
we don’t write well enough to share it.
no-one can be helped by our message.
we’re not the right person to share this message.
our way of telling our story is unrelatable, so people just won’t get it.
Maybe we’ve even said, “They’ve talked about this already. Why should I bother?”
If you KNOW that you were nudged or pulled on to write, then that is your green light to move towards your goal. Don’t look around and compare; your story is unique to you and your circumstances.
I gave this example yesterday: even if you and your friend had the same home situation: two-parent home, two older brothers, went to the same schools and lived in the same neighborhood – your lives may look the same externally (say, in a statistics or data set), but each person is living a unique life. No two lives are the same. No experience is lived the same. Even if a lot of the external factors match, each person’s internal thought pattern or processing of events will still be different.
I’m saying all of this to say: GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY! Look inward, look heavenward, and let’s get your book out!
So – you are invited to join us for The Writer’s Experience Book Challenge! We are challenging YOU to finish your book in just SIX weeks! I will prepare you and share vital information along the way. We will meet four times out of the six-week period (to give you time to write). We will have our kickoff on Feb 5, then we will meet on Feb 19, Mar 5 and wrap up on Mar 19. These sessions are all on Wednesdays at 7pm ET for ONE HOUR.
Your work will be reviewed by me in-between our sessions, so you must complete and email each assignment back to me for review to keep up.
I am EXCITED to see who will WIN this challenge! Let’s DO IT! I hosted my first book challenge in 2020 – it was so much fun, and several authors completed their books.
You can register now for $295; the price willincrease to $395 on February 1st.
I cannot wait to have you in class next week – Wednesday, February 5!
Register today; see you there! Space is reserved for TWELVE people.
