Do you have a burning desire to write something so powerful that it can change
someone’s life for the better?
Most of us can think back to a story or a book that touched us deeply. That’s because words have the power to change lives. Inspired words that come at troubling times can provide a new outlook on life.
Why choose to self-publish?
No more waiting for someone to take a chance on you.
Tired of knocking on a door waiting for a publisher to open it? Learn the steps to self-publish your books and open the door yourself.
You don't need an existing platform to be published.
Most publishing houses won’t take a chance on a writer—no matter how gifted they are—without an existing platform. It’s too much of financial risk for publishers. Today it’s never been easier to self-publish… and grow your platform along the way!
Don't pay thousands of dollars to be published!
Writers who don’t know how to self-publish often consider a publishing vendor who, at a high cost, will complete the publishing process for them. These vendors can charge thousands of dollars to publish a book. You can learn the steps without handing over your life’s savings.
You retain control and receive higher royalties.
Authors published by traditional publishing houses have to market their books. By self-publishing, you have more control and receive higher royalty rates.

About me
Hi! I’m Kelly, and I’ve authored my books via traditional and self-publishing methods. I’ve pitched proposals to publishers, and I’ve walked through the entire process with editing, cover design, and publishing.
I also know how to self-publish. I know where to find cover designers and editors. I’ve designed entire books from start to finish, and I’ve self-published them for print and digital formats.
Most importantly—and this matters—I ask God for guidance in all that I do. This is the one thing that sets a Christian author apart from the rest:
We write to glorify God, and when we allow Him to lead the way, we will reach people in powerful ways we cannot begin to imagine.
My dream? To teach you how to publish your books easily and affordably so your stories will be a Light in to world in need.
