Yes, I Want to Be An Author

Are You an African-American Man with a Powerful Story?

 

20 Black Men Will share Their Story and Become A Best Selling Author in this Anthology

 

 

Are you a black man who has had phenomenal experiences or has overcome challenges in your life or career that made an indelible impact or lasting impression on your life journey? Could your story be turned into a book or movie?

Become a contributing author in an amazing body of work as we chronicle “The Heart of a Black Man…” from the perspective of a BLACK MAN!

For centuries black men have faced many disparities. Many were lost, broken, and defeated, while others stood firm and advocated for their rights. This book is an opportunity for black men to write and share their heartfelt stories of triumph, and beating the odds.

Rather than being an avenue to protest or stoke social discord, by shedding light on the heart, the pain, and the psychological wounds that have impaired the physical and mental well-being of Black men for generations, this book aims to share your story to encourage, empower, inspire, and offer hope to readers around the world.

We've helped published multiple bestselling books and helped over 300 authors share their stories.

You can be next!

Celebrating 11 Years of Publishing

Dr. Telishia Berry is the Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Courageous Woman Magazine, an inspirational publication that highlights extraordinary women in business and entertainment, as well as provides media services to help women promote their products, services, and books.  It was during her divorce that she used her faith and determination and the $30 she had in her bank account to transform the Courageous Woman Blog into a magazine and distribute 4,000 print copies of the 1st issue. In 2022, Courageous Woman Magazine will celebrate 11 years of publishing, distributing over  2,000 articles, and 150+ cover stories, including celebrities such as Vanessa Bell Calloway, Mo’Nique, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Wendy Raquel Robinson, Vickie Winans, Jody Watley, Claressa Shields, and Oleta Adams.

Telishia is the author of the bestselling novel The Baptist Junkie, which is based on her mother’s true-life story of Faith, Family, and Redemption. The book received rave reviews and has been adapted into a screenplay. It has gained the interest of many Hollywood producers and notable actors. In 2017 Telishia decided to add book publishing as an extension of Courageous Woman Magazine under Strive International Publishing. She has published numerous authors, including gospel music legend Spencer Taylor Jr’s, A Legend Becomes a General: The GodFather of Quartet Music. She has published hundreds of stories that have helped over 200 women become bestselling authors.

Future Endeavors

In addition to writing and producing movies, Telishia is excited about returning to where it all began, the theater. She spent many years acting on stage then went on to write, produce, and direct award-winning musical stage plays. She was recently cast in an upcoming movie and looking forward to performing again.
