My Going Mogul Journey
Hi, I’m Lisa!
My passion: Helping authors eliminate overwhelm and build quickly from “platform to profits” via strategic and proven step-by-step systems.
Where I started
When I first started writing, I understood the business side of publishing but had to learn how to proceed as a creative. What I discovered was there was no central source of comprehensive information on how to go from pitch session to pitch submission or determine whether to shuck it all and simply go indie. Resources talked about writing query letters, drafting synopses, pitching to agents and publishers, going indie via Amazon, or going “wide.” While most of those sources told me what to do, they failed to show me how to do it.
Legal professional and solo parent
In those early writing days, I was working full-time as a professional and solo parenting a very active middle schooler and an even more active, three-sport teen, so I didn’t have a lot of spare time outside of the writing itself.
I wasn’t willing to miss volleyball games or track meets or say no to that other dance class. As a result, I went looking for resources to simplify the actions I needed to take once I was ready to seek publication.

In fact, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to effectively and efficiently build an author career while balancing my family life only to find that much of the customary “wisdom” was actually a waste of my time or ultimately didn’t help me sell more books.

Sound familiar?
What I learned
Using my background as a lawyer and business strategist, I eventually cultivated simple strategies and tools that made the process of becoming a multi-published, award-winning author systematic and less overwhelming.
With Going MogulTM for authors, I’m committed to sharing with others a clear roadmap to build a sustainable and thriving book publishing business. More importantly, I’ll focus on strategies that allow you to do so without compromising your values or neglecting relationships with those you love.

- Someone gave you a step-by-step plan to accomplish each aspect of the publishing business that currently has you baffled or stumped and maybe just plain overwhelmed?

Shh . . . I know those sound like dirty words. We’re supposed to be all about the craft, not all about the Benjamins. Right?
