Amanda’s courageous testimony after the trauma of rape is both profound and insightful for anyone who has experienced rape, anyone who is supporting a surviver of rape and anyone who works with rape victims. As I read this book, I felt as though Amanda was having a personal conversation with me while sharing her insights as she peeled back the layers of the trauma onion. Thus, giving me the gift of better understanding my own experience. This is a story of hope and healing. Thank you, Amanda

Strength, perseverance and faith play hand in hand. I loved reading the account of Amanda’s experience. I loved even more the way she leaned into God being fully willing to be transparent with Him in how she felt. I am so glad I decided to read this book.
I've been around Christian publishing since 1987 when I helped our ministry self-publish an important resource for Vietnam veterans and their families. That book went on to be picked up by a royalty publisher and has since sold over 250,000 copies with a million in print.
I'm glad you're here…stop by often and take advantage of all the information we make available.

Are you eager to write your first book? Perhaps you’ve launched one book but have an idea for a second or a third. If you’re uncertain what the next step looks like on the path from concept to completed manuscript, we can help.
Our Jumpstart! class explores subjects such as finding inspiration, sorting through ideas, how to begin, using personal examples, writing a powerful opening, avoiding writer’s block, and other useful topics. It will orient you toward publishing success.
Please join us for this friendly, informative four-week clinic, where aspiring and established writers receive warm, online professional group coaching to help them get started.
Okay, you’ve got a book underway, or your idea is at the ready. Excellent! But sometimes, as you write, you wonder, is this going any place? Am I doing this right? Maybe you have writer’s block or would like professional guidance and encouragement to help you progress through your manuscript.
We can do that!
Our six-week program consists of the coach and the author putting their heads together and taking the book from the idea, or beginning, stages, through a completed framework for the book. The coach guides the author through each week’s writing and preparation and returns the author’s submission with thorough, encouraging, and detailed notes. The following day, the coach and author meet online or by phone to discuss the week’s work, clarify anything that needs explanation, brainstorm solutions, and build the author’s confidence.
We like to make custom recommendations based on your manuscript and message, so it helps us to learn more about you and actually review the manuscript in order to come up with a publishing strategy.
