Welcome to Freshly Minted

Hello, Friends!

Today marks the launch of the Freshly Minted blog where I’ll post author interviews, self-publishing tips, and other news and stories about empowerment. I think it’s important to keep a dialogue going about social justice and find ways we can help people deal with sexism, racism, classism, and other means of oppression.

Since starting my publishing company, EmpowerMint Press, many of you have said you’d like to write a book. Well, I’m here to tell you to do it! I have a whole range of services on my website no matter which step in the process you’re in, whether you’d like to publish on your own and need an edit, or you’d like help pursuing the traditional publishing route, or you’d like to work with me, which is a happy medium between the two — I’m here to make it possible.

With this blog I’d like to inspire and guide you. I’d also like for you to have a place to ask questions and spark new ideas about how we can help each other be and do our best. I’ve always believed that the word is mighty and I think we have the power to create a lot of positive change.

Anyway, whether you’re a writer or just someone who cares about empowerment, I hope this blog serves you well. I look forward to reading your comments and chatting with you, so please use this space to connect with me and others who care about making the world better through publishing and self-expression.

Happy Writing!
