I was doing some cleaning and found this work of art I did a few years back.

Painting is a popular wind-down activity here in Las Vegas. We have everything from paint and sips (wine down) to puff and paints, to paint and punch.

I'm always telling my writer and author clients of poetry to have a "Poetry and Paint." Do anything but have a "reading, appearance, signing, or release."

If you don't display confidence when telling people about you, your business, your service, product, dreams, visions, message, movement, and goals, then nine times out of ten they are not going to be confident in sponsoring, collaborating, investing in, working with, partnering, or supporting you.

When people and organizations are contemplating writing you checks or partnering with you, there are times when they don't want humbleness, they want receipts!

But even with that being said, being humble does not mean being quiet, especially when it comes to presenting and speaking about something near and dear to your heart.

If you want some tips and strategies on how to present with confidence, then be sure you register for the "Building Confidence in Client Presentations" live virtual webinar being held Thursday, June 19th at 12pm Pacific/3 pm EST by visiting https://nsbdc.ecenterdirect.com/events/4907.

This webinar is free for you to attend thanks to the funding of Nevada Small Business Development Center and the U.S. Small Business Administration.

As a young girl, I can remember being a part of my local library district's Summer Reading Challenge program. I spent days in the air-conditioned branches escaping into the worlds authors took the time to create just for me. Sitting on the carpet listening to story time and author readings. And then to get rewarded with so many cool prizes for doing something that was kin to breathing was the cherry on top.

Fast-forward to when I became a teenage mom - and then an adult mom - summer days were spent as a family visiting the various library branches to participate in the different Summer Reading Challenge programs and offerings. The excitement on their faces when my children would earn a free ice-cream cone, or even a free admission to the local water park.

Eventually I, myself, was able to feel like a kid again when many library districts started including Summer Reading Challenges and programs for adults.

These are memories I hope to never forget. How many of you have these same types of memories that you hope to never forget? That you pray will forever take space in your brain? With June being "Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month", I'm reminded not to take the ability to remember these experiences for granted.

Do you know how to secure funding with your story? We're not talking about a pitch - which can sometimes be a story on a time budget - but we're talking about when given the full right, privilege, and opportunity to share your personal, business, and financial journey and story in order to secure funding? It can be sharing your story on a grant or loan application, a sponsorship deck, etc.

Last month at the IBPA (Independent Book Publishers Association) PubU25 Conference, Path To Publishing CEO Joylynn M. Ross was able to present a 20-minute, in-person version of her presentation about what you need to say versus what needs to be heard when sharing your story. Many of you reached out and asked if the presentation would also be available virtually, which at the time it wasn't. But today, Wednesday, June 11, 2025, Nevada Small Business Development Center is giving Joylynn a full hour in the virtual webinar she'll be instructing titled "Securing Funding with Your Story: What You Want to Say vs. What Needs to Be Heard."
Mark your calendar and set your alarm for June 11, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific/1:00 p.m. Eastern. And be sure to visit the link below to register: https://nsbdc.ecenterdirect.com/events/4906. The last we checked there were only 17 seats left, so secure your now!

I am thrilled to announce that I will serve as both a judge and workshop presenter at the Columbus Film, Author & Photography Festival, aka CFAP!!!!!

With almost three decades of experience in the literary industry, I'm a powerhouse in publishing. Hey, life is too short for fake humbleness. I prefer to spend my time dropping real receipts with real results! 😉 Plus, "It ain't bragging when you can back it up." I teach authors how to back up their expertise, gifts, skills, and talents.

As the CEO of Path To Publishing, I have guided countless writers, authors, CEOs, and entrepreneurs along their writing, publishing, and content creation journeys.

Whether you’re a writer who loves the craft or someone with a powerful message but not the time (or desire) to write it yourself, I help you find your perfect path to writing and publishing success. I've also helped authors transform their books into full-fledged businesses, scale existing ventures, and establish themselves as experts in their fields - this goes for both fiction and nonfiction authors.

Want to learn how to turn your story into success? Come out and hear more at the 2025 CFAP Festival by registering at columbusfapfestival.com

And don't forget to submit your literary works to the festival, where along with my judging scoring, I'll provide a mini-critique on your project as well.

It is not too late to register for the 2025 Author Retreat being held Friday and Saturday, June 6th & 7th, hosted by The And I Thought Ladies and Indies United Publishing House.

As part of the retreat, I'm excited to be presenting a workshop titled "Build Your Literary Business & Enterprise...With Other People's Money."

For the last two weeks I've taken additional courses, webinars, and seminars on grant, sponsorship, and other funding and resources for literary artists, authorpreneurs, business owners, and non-profits, and this is the first of my presentations in which I will be sharing the latest grantors, resources, information, tips, and strategies I've learned about. Just when I thought there wasn't too much more to learn about how to fund literary and business endeavors with other people's money, I was proven wrong.

I am convinced that if you are a struggling artist or struggling publisher or business owner—or even if you are doing well but can't seem to scale and grow—it's because you simply don't know about or are choosing not to tap into the resources available to help you scale, grow, and move your stories and messages. So, if you are near the Quincy, Illinois, area, I urge you to register for the 2025 Author Retreat at the following link: https://www.indiesunited.net/2025-author-retreat

Showing up and making connections is actually part of what I'm going to teach you about building your literary business and enterprise with other people's money. So show up! I hope to see you this weekend!

"Dear writers,

"Some of our biggest social media platforms seem to treat words as a pesky inconvenience, best to be moderated away from your awareness.

"But we're all here—you, I, the other people reading this newsletter—in part because we know that words matter, and writing is an essential part of being human. Whether to express ourselves or share some measure of what we've learned in our time on this planet, we know the simple act of writing things down is, at its core, a healthy one, a necessary one, an important one. I think this is even more true right now."

The above was the opening from my Medium newsletter, and I just happened to crack it open right after I had a conversation—or perhaps a debate—where someone was telling me: "People prefer short content. People don't like to read lots of words."

Now, when I hear people say that, it makes me cringe. But when I hear an actual writer or author say that . . .

Come on!

Seriously!

People will read—or listen to—long content when it's adding benefit and value to their lives.

So, whenever I encounter someone who drank the Kool-Aid and are convinced that people don't like words, my response is always the same: "'They' got to you, too, huh?"

And I always get the same reply: "Who are they?"

EXACTLY!

Might 'they' be the ones who control platforms that can only thrive on short content? So, if 'they' get you to believe you have a short attention span, it's a win-lose situation. 'They' being the winner.

"Well, according to algorithms . . ."

Whose algorithms?

"Theirs."

Oh, you mean 'they.'

"But studies show . . ."

Whose studies?

"Theirs"

Do you see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, thank you, Medium, for not trying to manipulate folks into thinking that words are pesky instead of priceless. Let's leave that to 'they.'

"EIGHT YEARS in the making, and it's FINALLY HERE!"

When I read those words from Pathfinder Lonna Hardin, who I consulted with during the pandemic, when books were deemed "non-essential," my spirit leaped.

Based on how determined and intentional this person was when she came to me for professional literary guidance, I pretty much knew what was to come in her message. But I continued reading anyway for confirmation.

"The Melody's Song app has officially launched! This journey began with a dream: to bring (children's book) Melody's Song and the City of the Voice Snatchers to life through film and animation, empowering children—especially those in underserved communities—to find their voice and understand their place in the world. I wanted them to understand the power they hold to live to the beat of their own drum and write their own stories," stated the author and creator, Lonna Hardin.

As a teaching artist and a member of the Teaching Artists Guild, the message I received in my inbox that TAG is entering its final chapter as an organization saddens me.

I've taught and guided so many of my clients on how to earn income as paid teaching artists, while also making a social impact. I've received a great deal of information, resources, tips, strategies, support, and guidance from TAG. I'll still carry on everything I learned in my continued literary consulting, coaching, mentoring, and teaching efforts.

As long as I continue to pass on to my clients all the value and benefits TAG added to my life and literary & teaching career, they will forever exist in my mind and heart. Therefore, I'm not removing their logo from my website.

P.S. Would you liked to be mentored by me for the last six months of 2025 so that you can position yourself to achieve all your 2026 literary dreams, visions, and goals? Then be one of only 25 participants in the 2025 6-Month Group Literary Mentorship Program.

When you register at https://www.pathtopublishing.com/mentorship-program, the fee will automatically be broken down into six monthly payments. You do not have to pay in one lump sum. You will be billed monthly for six months. Register now to guarantee your spot.

Our Story

No matter if you are traditionally published, self-published, a POD author, published with a self-publishing assistance company, vanity press, hybrid author, new author, vet author, or aspiring author, your book is YOUR business. Path To Publishing is not just about working with self-published authors and teaching them how to self-publish, but we teach authors of every genre, no matter which path to publishing they choose, about the publishing process and business, as well as the industry itself. There are thousands of self-publishing books, free webinars, and free PDFs that can teach individuals how to self-publish, but here at Path To Publishing, we like to teach those who are published how to be authors. There are far more pieces to the puzzle other than just "getting a book out there" that need to be in place in order to form the big, pretty picture called literary success. Path To Publishing helps authors find the right path to publication for their particular literary project, and stay on it.

Through conferences, workshops, webinars, one-on-one consulting and online courses, we help authors build their book, build their book business, and create multiple streams of income to sustain their book business.

The Path To Publishing community is not just writers writing books. We are literary architects building literary empires.

Books have just as great of an influence on society as music, film and dance. When it comes to declaring someone a triple threat, being an author should be an option. Path To Publishing makes sure its authors know their worth and the worth of their intellectual property.
