I love working with everyone but I specialize in authors who are ready to publish their high quality professional grade book, as well as #ownvoices #diversevoices As a person with a physical disability, and African-American woman I understand the unique challenges that writers have from all walks of life not just to publish but to write, to put yourself on the page. I'm secretly also the older, wiser persons-whisperer: for some reason people come to me who have had multiple acts and are finally ready to publish their books. I know it's because I'm an extremely patient person and this resonates with people who (and they've told me) don't want to embrace/learn technology (and that's okay). Progress over perfection. I'm a teacher at heart, I LOVE teaching!! At every turn I try to arm you and set you up for success to do all of this the second time around (when the bug bites you -and it will- AND if you want,) on your own! Your story should be told and you ONLY can tell it. I'm happy to render done-for-you services in publishing, writing and Virtual Assistance tasks, or arm you to learn every single thing along our journey. As far as credentials, I have authored and published 20 best-selling books of my own and have taught at two colleges/universities, one for 15+ years teaching publishing, writing the novel and small business classes. I have more than 20 published author clients, including a USA Today Best-selling author. I have sold more than 105,000 of my own books and continue to write and publish my own books, while I also am pitching a serial crime fiction drama AND working on a stage play. I'm slowing transitioning in writing, speaking and teaching/consulting (with you-full time) and am a transition coach, helping people make their next move in a way that makes sense and won't leave you stressed and without a plan for you and your loved ones. I look forward to helping you reach your publishing goals!

Find your dream assistant now
This is such a needed service for authors. I've used VA/PA services from other well-known freelance platforms, but they can be overwhelming and daunting. Looking for an assistant who has some knowledge of the author world (such as Bookbub Ads) is like looking for a needle in a haystack with these larger platforms.
I had been dragging my feet on hiring a more permanent VA/PA for so long because I didn't want to have to deal with looking through that proverbial haystack, but Busy Bee makes it so easy to find the assistant you need for the work you need as an author. Thank you, Brian!!
