Publishing poetry, inspirational articles, and devotionals was not in the long term plan, but Coleen has found herself joining several local and national writing groups, and is known for her abilities to edit without offending. Several authors have had articles accepted for publication after Coleen has edited their work.

Coleen’s name is also listed in two published author’s book acknowledgements. (Hope for the Journey through Cancer: Inspiration for Each Day by Yvonne Ortega, May 2007, and Dark Enough to See the Stars in a Jamestown Sky by Connie Lapallo, 2006)

Coleen also speaks to writer’s groups:

How to Lose the Meek in Your Critique; geared toward brand new and published writers of any genre; teaches how to assess and comment upon other’s and one’s own writing.

Covers and Queries with Flair, Oh My; teaches writers the “how to” on contacting agents or editors using correct formats. This is a must for any writer interested in getting published.
