Text Box: Client Comments

Author, Marilyn Zapata, wrote the following comments in her self-published book, Around the World in Forty Years: Volume IV (Cover Design by Gloria Hander Lyons)

 

“My extra special thanks to my mentor and friend, author, Gloria Hander Lyons, from Blue Sage Press, who made this book possible. After giving me her book on self-publishing and signing it, “Do it yourself!” I still didn’t get around to it. It was only when she insisted that she would help me get it into print did I consent. And I appreciate her persistence very much. But I didn’t do it myself. We did it together.”
