Let us help you tell your story.

A Powerful Story comes alongside businesses, non-profits, and individuals, to help them tell their story in a compelling way. We’ve guided individuals and organizations all around the country on their publishing journey, and we can help you. Get started by subscribing to A Powerful Story newsletter, where you’ll get free advice on writing and publishing. If you need a collaborator, editor or guide, we’re here for you. We’ll help you write a book or study guide, and find your way along the path to publication.

Our Services

Collaborative Writing

We start with your idea, outline or rough manuscript, and work with you to turn them into a book, or a curriculum. We interview you to pull the ideas you’ve scribbled on note cards or in a journal for years, curate content from speaking transcripts or audio files, and help you organize them into a book. We’ll then help you determine the best path to publication and guide you toward it.

Ebook Writing

An ebook can be used for marketing or sold on amazon. We’ll help you write it, then help you market it. We can also provide layout and design services.

Self-Publishing

Your story deserves to be told. Self-publishing is a great way to publish a print or e-book. We provide assisted self-publishing services. With our help, you become the publisher and retain all rights. Once your book is written (by you or in collaboration with Keri) our team will edit, design the cover, and format your book. We’ll help you set up everything you need to self-publish, from securing an ISBN to creating your own publishing imprint. We guide you on every step on your self-publishing journey.

Curriculum Development

Take training materials , a book or sermon series (or just a few ideas) you’ve created and turn them into a beautifully designed curriculum (with or without accompanying DVD).

Proposal Writing

A book proposal is your one chance to make a first impression with a publisher. Keri has written dozens of proposals and knows what gets a publisher to keep reading and say yes. This 30-40 page sales document will include a compelling description of your book, chapter summaries, a summary of competing titles, a marketing strategy, and two sample chapters.

Developmental editing

You’ve written a book manuscript! Congratulations. Your next step to make your book the best it can be? A developmental edit. This big-picture edit looks at the scope and sequence of your book? Does it flow and keep the reader engaged? Are there inconsistencies in your argument or plot? Should sections or chapters be moved or shortened or even deleted? A developmental edit carefully examines these questions to make your manuscript sing!

Keri has collaborated with pastors and authors including Rick Warren, Bill Hybels, Greg Hawkins, and Bill Donahue. She’s worked with a variety of publishers including Zondervan, InterVarsity Press, Bethany House, Revell, and InterVarsity Press. As a ghostwriter/collaborative writer, she has turned sermon series into books, talks into articles, and ideas into curriculum.

“On a tight deadline, Keri was able to collaborate with me and do the bulk of the writing on a long ebook for one of our site sponsors. It was energizing to work with her, as she works quickly, succinctly, and is extremely thorough in her research and writing. She is an expert in every way and a delight to work with. If you are looking for a stellar team member to achieve a collaborative work, or need a book ghost written, or just want guidance on how to focus your writing project, I highly recommend Keri. You won’t be disappointed.”
