"Future children’s book author/illustrator here to say: Alissa has been SO helpful in my writing process. She met with me at the beginning of my ventures to point me in the right direction. I am new to the world of publishing and Alissa’s guidance has made all the difference. She’s transparent in sharing what has and has not worked for her—making the world of self publishing more accessible. I left our meeting incredibly motivated, inspired, and equipped. Anyone would be lucky to connect with and learn from Alissa and her Writer’s Guide to Publishing."

"I recently purchased Alissa's A to Z Publishing Guide and was literally blown away! There is a plethora of useful information within, and it is all incredibly easy to follow. It also includes recommendations based on her personal experiences, which is a huge plus for me! I had the pleasure of scheduling a Zoom call with her as well, so that she could help me talk over some writing questions I had. She was so wonderfully kind and helpful. I felt comfortable talking with her and look forward to doing so again in the near future."
- Robin Degan
"A to Z: A Writer’s Guide to Publishing was so helpful! Alissa did a great job with laying everything out in an easy-to-read format. Her publishing resources guide is so helpful! She included a wide range of editors, formatters, cover design artists, helpful websites, cartographers, etc. I highly recommend purchasing this guide and talking to Alissa! She is so sweet and helpful, and she even helped me research a few of the questions that we didn’t have answers to."
