Is This Really a Book?!

If you’re ready to make 2026 the year you get your story out of your head and onto the page, I got you!

My name is Leah Lakins, and I’m a 20-year editorial expert who has written bestselling books with Steve Harvey, Roland Martin, DeVon Franklin, and more.

The most important thing that I’ve discovered in creating these books with these household names is that at the core of every good book is a good story.

And now I’m excited to help first-time authors just like you to discover your best page-turning stories, too.

On Thursday, December 18th, I will be hosting an introductory writing workshop called "IS THIS REALLY A BOOK?!" In this 90-minute session, you’ll get the tools you need to

• CLARIFY the purpose of your story,
• DEVELOP a writing plan,
• EXPLORE your publishing options, and
• CONNECT with other aspiring authors.

If you’re ready to get started, you can register today and take the first step towards sharing your story with the world.
