About Joan Cox

Picture of Joan Cox Joan Cox has a passion for helping people, whether it’s counseling or teaching. She was a counselor for prisoners, and people coming out of mental institutions. She helped them to re-evaluate their lives and to adjust their thinking to re-enter society.

Over the years, she’s crammed in an advertising and marketing career even as she wrote, edited, and taught others to express themselves on paper. Her greatest enjoyment has been working with her student writers to ensure that their manuscripts were marketable.

Joan has been a writing coach with thirty years experience. She has authored The Writer’s Manual and co-authored Wealth of the Mind: A Designed Thinking for Success Course within the last three years. She has authored several other books that will be available in the upcoming bookstore.

About Mary Doppler

Picture of Mary Doppler Although writing is her life’s work, Mary has spent years along the way earning experience points in such fields as nursing, business, entertainment, and the military. Underlying each such experience was the abundant wellspring of anecdotes and lessons that contributed to her broad approach to capturing life in the written word.

Lending her talents to such projects as biographies, novels, collections of poetry, and researching and presenting facts and concepts about business and health, Mary has long been dedicated to presenting what needs to be said in a reader-friendly and interest-stimulating fashion.

Although she has taken on many projects, has served as editor for several local publications, and has taught English as a second language, her greatest joy is presenting to readers something that will not only enlighten them, but will hopefully improve their lives as well. If you add up all the years she’s been writing, editing and teaching, it actually comes out to more years than she cares to admit!
