About Cheryl Pickett

Writer, Instructor, Publishing Possibilities Coach

Cheryl Pickett

I have always loved reading books and magazines, (almost anything really). I also discovered a talent for writing way back in elementary school that grew throughout my school days. However, it wasn't until 1999 that I looked seriously at writing again and decided to try freelancing.

Thanks to a patient editor at a local newspaper, my first article was published in December 1999, just before the turn of the millennium. At that time, my byline read Cheryl Beck and I thank my family and many local readers for encouraging me to move forward.

To date, I have more than 150 articles to my credit, as well as experience writing for business and promotion. My work has appeared both locally and internationally in a variety of newspapers, online newsletters and magazines. In addition, I'm a Platinum Expert Author at Ezinearticles.com and a regular contributor to the Sharing Wth Writers Newsletter (Howtodoitfrugally.com).

A couple of years ago, I decided I wanted to move more toward my love of books and I began researching writing and publishing one of my own. Along the way, I discovered a new expression of that passion for books and a desire to help others understand the crazy world of publishing.

2008 was very exciting as I launched my new blog, website and published my first book for writers and authors, Publishing Possibilities. I'm also looking forward to expanding my business and writing on other topics as well.

On a personal note, I married a wonderful guy named Dave in 2006 and am proud to have three sons by love & marriage (a.k.a stepsons) Andy, Steve and Aaron.
