Discussion Topics/or/ Choose Your Own

Walking By Faith

Sheila discusses how her writing career began. She tells how it took faith and courage to step into a world that was unfamilar to her. With no writing experience and just the voice of God guiding her, Sheila completed her first non-fiction book in just eight months. Now, with five years as a professional writer, two books, and numerous articles, Sheila can truly say, "She did it walking by faith."


Destined To Succeed

Sheila encourages young teens to never give up on their dreams. She let's them know that God uses those that men consider worthless and use them for His glory. Sheila also encourages them to use their gifts for greatness, instead for evil. *Youth counselors and teachers are welcome to suggest topics of interest.

 
A Woman's Worth

Women go through so much in life. With roles, such as motherhood, wife, and as career women, it's easy to lose yourself in the mist of the hustle and bustle. Sheila speaks words of empowerment in these settings that women will know that they have a purpose in life than just caregivers. She speaks from experience on the subject, because it was at a women's conference years ago that she found the stength and courage to follow her dreams and bring them into fruition. 


Becoming an Author

You must believe in your work or no one else will. There are many pitfalls as an author, learn what works best for you. What works for others, will not necessarily be key for you. Learn who your target audience is and find your niche. Beware. No one can promise you a bestseller or get your book in every bookstore. Sheila also speaks of how marketing is important when you are trying to get your book to stand out among thousands of others.
