"There was so much I didn’t know that goes into and is essential for the book-writing process. Maggie was there for me every step of the way from pre-work to publishing, guiding me through all of the technical stuff I would have let stand in my way. If you're ready to write your book, this is exactly what you need to birth it into existence."
~ Andrea Dawn, author of
