Introduction
A Self Publishing Expert Who Works For You! ☆ Memoir  ☆ Personal Development ☆ Self-Help ☆ Business Development ☆ Children's Books Your message matters, and I believe it could bring hope, healing, and breakthrough in the lives of others.  That's why my top priority as your editor and publishing consultant is to make your book shine.  I  can guide you from your book idea through publication and marketing, or you can cherry-pick the services you want. And whichever services you choose, you always make the final decisions, you keep the profits, and you keep all distribution and copyrights. I have clients from all walks of life--doctors, lawyers, teachers, funeral home owners, celebrity stylists, pastors, psychologists, life coaches, dream interpreters, marketing executives, fitness trainers, financial consultants, chefs, cancer survivors, domestic abuse victims...I could go on, but I think you get the idea. :-)  No matter your zone of genius, if you have a book inside of you, I can help you get it done! Since 2012, I've written and published eight best selling books of my own, and I've been the ghostwriter for dozens of books over the past four years. Additionally, through ILLUMINATION PRESS, my publishing services company, I have helped more than 100 authors publish their books since 2017.  I am proud to say I not only help others write, publish, and make money with their books, I write, publish, and make money with my own books, too.  I am in the trenches with you, serving you with practical, relevant expertise and experience.    I'm telling you all of this because I know being able to trust the person you are working with is important. I also want you to know that it doesn't matter your level of experience or background, I'm your resource to make your book dreams a reality!

Although we were not able to start and complete the project with BPonder due to some unanticipated circumstances on our end I am confident that it would have worked out to my satisfaction. The professionalism and willingness to share info with me in such a timely and open way was impressive and refreshing to me. I have recommended her company wholeheartedly to several other acquaintances with literary projects in minds!!

I had a completed manuscript and had no clue of how to get it ready for print publication. I had already submitted an eBook, but the quality was so poor that I had to unpublish it. I am so grateful that I found Ms. Ponder on Thumbtack! She was always friendly, professional, and very responsive to my needs and requests. Her cost-efficient services included; copyediting, interior design/formatting, cover design, eBook formatting, and self-publishing author support. I can honestly say that I am very pleased with my final files (eBook, Print, Hardcopy, and Cover Design). I look forward to working with her on my next project!
