Event description

If you’re like a lot of us in the “helping professions,” you spend more time helping others reach their goals than you help yourself. It’s easy to put yourself last, but by moving your desire to write a book to the top of the list, you’ll make your knowledge and experience more accessible to more people. Can you justify putting this off any longer? Don’t you owe it to yourself and to the world to get your book written?

I am educational psychologist and author Dr. Patricia Nan Anderson. My own book cluttered up my brain for over twenty years until I finally wrote and published it in less than six months. Get your own project started this month. Have it done by the fall or by the end of the year. This action-oriented - but hype-free - session is the place to start.

I know that this date is the beginning of the Memorial Day weekend. But what better way to start the summer than with your book project underway? Come. Make this summer something special!

    Patricia -

    You've inspired me today to go out and Write, Write, and Write...there's a book in all of us...that's for sure.

    I didn't know my tragic personal story could be a book...who would of thought...

    I had set the goal of writing a book and being on Oprah about 2 years ago, and today, it not only becomes a possibility, it can be a reality.

    Thank you for the wonderful workshop.

    Thank you Patricia for a truly inspiring message to write the books that are in all of us.

    I learned so much about the book publishing world and how surprisingly "easy" it is to make this a reality. Your helpful tips, website references, and explanation of the down and dirty step by step process was exactly what I needed to hear.

    You have my deepest gratitude.

    This was a great event! Not only does Patricia have the knowledge, wisdom and expertise, but a personable, humorous and down-to-earth delivery that is at once refreshing and enjoyable.

    Definitely would recommend anyone to take advantage of her events such as this.

    While also a great speaker, Patricia was a pro in opening the doors for each participant to share their dreams and closet ideas of their own books, and as a result, everyone left with a more tangible vision of what was possible for them...the ultimate goal of any presenter.

    Excellent!

    Kind Regards, Jane Bakken

    I agree this was a great event. It was obvious that Patricia had considerable more information to share. Anyone that missed this event should sign up for the next one. It was definitely worth my time. I was both inspired to write and felt that it was also possible my book could get published.

    Patricia is a great resource and anyone aspiring to write a book would benefit from speaking with her.

    Thanks for the opportunity to be a sponge.
