LISA LUCCA, AUTHOR & EDITOR
I know how hard it is to get published in today's crowded marketplace. As a life coach, I've helped many clients birth their books. When it was my turn, after doing all the classes, the seminars, the queries, the workshops, and receiving the rejection letters, I decided to publish my books independently. Taking on the arduous task of learning all that goes into self-publishing, I've taken extensive classes and learned from the best. Along with my team, I provide top notch design and editing excellence. My marketing background was a huge help in making my memoir an Amazon #1 New Release in two categories. Four of my authors have had #1 New Release bestsellers, too! So can you.
I am the author of Ashes to Ink: A Memoir and co-author of You Are Loved: an email memoir, written with my partner, Mark Mathias. I was a #Blogher Voice of the Year, and my essays have been published in several anthologies. In 2022, I was the recipient of the Literary Legacy Award from El Paso College and named an Outstanding Woman of the Mesilla Valley. I will guide you on the journey of writing your truth, and help you navigate the ever-changing world of publishing. With a team of editors, designers, and indie publishing knowledge, I can help make your book a reality. Let's talk about your project.
