Crippled Beagle Publishing I coach authors from wherever they are all the way into the marketplace. This is my story. Like Bell, humans are imperfect, but we have stories to tell.

Download my Step-by-Step Guide from Idea to Published, Profitable Book here: https://www.crippledbeaglepublishing.com/trailguide When I was young, my crippled beagle Bell kept me company as I daydreamed on paper. Bell had backward knees, but a calm disposition and sweet nature made her an all-time favorite pet. She loved to hang out in our old to***co barn in East Tennessee and bark at the chicken

s. In late summer and early fall, I often sat in a wooden swing that hung from the barn's rafters, and I cracked walnuts from a nearby tree. I set them on the tack room step, where Bell wagged her short tail and waited for her seasonal treat. I welcome the opportunity to help you share your talent and communicate your unique message in a powerful way. There are many steps in telling your story, but you don’t have to take the steps alone. Crippled Beagle Publishing guides clients from any stage (ideas, piles of notes, rough drafts, manuscripts) through the complex phases of writing, revising, publishing, and marketing. We work with you to figure out the best, fastest, and most economical route that will help you reach your goals. You choose (with our guidance) from a variety of methods at different price points. Establishing a publishing venture has authentically, significantly, and beautifully altered my life's trajectory...

With over 400 clients served and more than almost 200 books published, I wake up early and eager every day to help creative people tell their stories. I have found my calling, but becoming the leader of a growing team of 10+ talented individuals (with a network of 65 talented contributors), running a digital and in-person business, and guiding writers to become published authors wasn't an easy, overnight shift. I was a banker, then a teacher, then a banker again, then a freelance ghostwriter and editor before I finally went “all in” to launch Crippled Beagle Publishing. My career has followed a true story arc, with big moments, business pivots, drama, humor, success, and countless lessons learned. Humbling failures and urgent decisions sometimes made me doubt my path forward, just like any writer can understand. Entrepreneurs and authors are risk takers. But looking back over the years, I am now profoundly thankful for every chancy decision, blooper, blunder, and blessing. In addition to my work as founder and CEO of Crippled Beagle Publishing and Story Mountain Media, I am honored to serve as the Chapter Co-Leader of Women Connect and I'm also a member of both the Independent Book Publishers Association, C12: Christian Business Leadership Forum, and routinely lead or participate in business and writing masterminds. These roles allow me to connect with like-minded individuals and continue to learn, grow, and serve those seeking to tell their stories. I would love to help you tell yours!

What if the key to discipline wasn't about following more rules, but about setting the right internal standards?

It's all about setting your own internal standards to stop chasing, suffer less, and achieve more. Unlike other productivity books, this one distinguishes between routines, disciplines, habits, and standards, freeing you from external frameworks. As the review notes, the goal is to help you set "INTERNAL standards, which is where expansion happens. A must-read for any entrepreneur!

This quote beautifully distinguishes between the spirit and the mechanics of writing. It suggests that the true essence of writing isn't about perfectly following rules, but about having the courage to put your ideas, emotions, and stories down on paper. This "act of faith" is the core of creation, with grammar simply a tool to help.

So, what's a story you have the faith to tell today?

In this 1990 photo my beloved crippled beagle Bell keeps me company as I daydream on paper. Each of us is imperfect. Bell had backward knees, but a calm disposition and sweet nature made her an all-time favorite pet. Each of us is imperfect, but each of us has a story to tell, whether it's an article, speech, letter, success story, or social media content for your business, a school essay, a memoir, or a family or business legacy. Contact me for more information and pricing. Let’s talk about how I can help you tell your story!
