She Speaks, was a conference for Christian Writers, Speakers and Bloggers, oh my! The worst part, feeling torn between all three. I have for a long time called myself a Christian speaker, for a shorter time however I have began to dub myself a Christian writer and blogger. Though, I have had a love for writing a long time and been a faithful blogger as well, I just didn’t realize that I really WAS ONE! Does that even make sense? But now, looking back on the conference I realize, I am …. really… ALL 3. Which is awesome, but challenging at the same time.

As I chose for the conference to go as a speaker, I chose to take the Speaker’s Track and mostly take speaker related workshops with a few exceptions here were my choices: Blogging: What Works and What Doesn’t, The Power of a Story, Marketing for More Bookings, Teaching By The Book and Balancing Marriage & Ministry.

I feel like God placed me in each of those specifically for a reason. The blogging one helped me, in addition to Friday’s blogging reception to connect with those ladies online who I only knew by face and words. It was amazing to meet someone whose blog you’ve read and pictures you’ve seen 1000 times. I told my husband it felt so weird because I felt like I knew them already in “real life” though I really did not, but now can say that I do.

The other workshops were amazing, I learned too much to even possibly post. And, in addition I participated in Shari Braendel’s Speaker Evaluation Group which was the most nerve racking of all the things I did this weekend. You see, I’ve been a “speaker” for 3 whole years. I have had no shortage of speaking opportunities, no matter how small to me, I felt I was prepared. So, why did I suddenly become nervous when I strangely never got nervous before about speaking?

Well, normally the 11 other ladies in the room aren’t “evaluating” me. I think that was the key. However, these sweet sisters, were very honest, yet critical, but just what I needed and Sunday afternoon I walked away with an even greater confirmation that I am a “Christian speaker”. I can do this with God’s Grace!!! Ironically one of the themes of the weekend was “grace, grace, grace”, the other, “Setting my agenda aside, for God’s Will to be done.” Something I want, now, more than ever, “for God’s will to be done in my life”.

I was blown away when Shari shared with me during my speaker evaluation session that I should write my “speech” into an article and submit it for publication in a Christian teen magazine. This confirming that I am a “Christian writer”.

And, as I sit her “blogging” this morning, I know, I am a “Christian blogger”. So, I guess God has only confirmed in me what I thought I knew, but now know for sure! Amazing, and as I said yesterday I am truly BLESSED!

Though I know for many of my readers it seems like I am going on on and on….there is more… so stay tuned.

Carrollton, MS – What happens when a writer’s plate gets full and she still wants to offer the same quality articles written in her style allowing her clients to receive the same-targeted service? She recruits a team of like-minded writers with a similar writing style and commitment to quality to work alongside her in providing exceptional service for her clients.

This is precisely what Alyssa Avant, with A Writer for Hire is doing. She has recruited a team of writers to assist her in producing the same well written, high quality, fast turn-around articles and other content for online business owners and entrepreneurs. Effective immediately, A Writer for Hire, is no longer just one writer, but a team of writers committed to providing clients with articles and other content that is “on target, on time, every time”.

A Writer for Hire is the ghostwriting business of momprenuer Alyssa Avant. She began this business to help support herself, to contribute to her family budget while she pursued her passion to minister to teen and tween girls. The business has grown successfully and she is excited about this new expansion.

Alyssa’s clients are from a variety of fields, but trust her to provide quality articles and content for their website and other materials in their businesses.

Shannon Cherry of Be Heard Solutions had this to say about working with Alyssa, “When I thought about outsourcing some of my writing, I was a bit unsure. After all, I am a professional writer and I was worried that no one would capture my voice. Alyssa Avant not only nailed the content I needed, but she was fast, accurate - and very, very good. And she sounded just like me. I’ve found my writing clone and couldn’t be happier.”

“I plan to ensure that the writer’s I hire provide the same quality articles that I have become known for, my clients will not be disappointed.” says Alyssa, who will now be known as the Head Writer at A Writer for Hire.
