Story behind the book...

Hello!

As a creative, with a desire to write a book. During the Covid-19 lock down I knew it was time to write my first book. I took a course and was certified as an Authorpreneur, yes!

​

I began to write my experience working in the court and corrections in the criminal justice field. Then I thought why not go deeper into how to prepare the reader for everyday life as a woman around authoritarians, defendants, the community, and her (a woman's) state of mind.

​

The book cover has a woman standing in a cape with a shine of confidence graced across the face, with red lipstick, and a jail cell in the background to represent a symbol of criminal justice.

​

With a Paralegal degree from The University of Akron, which led to hands-on experience in the field of court and corrections. I used creativity and my experience to successfully write and self-publish "Confidence, Lipstick and Criminal Justice". By reading this book, the details, encouragement, and tips within the pages will be an investment in yourself or your friend, family member's life.
