Is It Time to Write Your Book? (Wednesday, October 21, 2026)

Is It Time to Write Your Book? Our Panel of New Authors Can Show You How

Have you been thinking about writing and publishing a book, perhaps for a very long time? Writing a book can establish you as an authority in your field and increase your credibility.

Many consultants haven’t pursued a book project because they think the process is time-consuming and costly. They’re unsure how to get started and wonder if a publisher and/or readers would even care about their point of view.

Join us on Wednesday, October 21 for a virtual panel discussion that will help make writing a book less intimidating. The panel will be moderated by Ken Lizotte, the author of ten books of his own, who'll be speaking with two new authors to discuss how they got through similar doubts and confusion to finally become, in their own rite, bona fide published authors!

There’s no charge for this workshop, but advance registration is required. A recording will only be available on demand for registered attendees or current SPC members.

Reserve your spot today!

About Our Panelists:

Ken Lizotte, CMC Emeritus, is Chief Imaginative Officer (CIO) of emerson consulting group inc., a consulting firm that has transformed 400+ consultants and companies into published “thought leaders” by helping them bring their book ideas to life with the help of a traditional publisher.

Ken's most recent book is "Walden for Hire: Business Lessons from Henry David Thoreau," published this year by HarperCollins Leadership.

Can you run a successful business without compromising your values? Larry O’Toole, founder of the award-winning nationwide moving company Gentle Giant, proves that you absolutely can. His new book Heavy Lifting: Building a Business With a Giant Heart is part leadership lesson, part memoir, and entirely inspirational.

Larry founded Gentle Giant with a single business plan. “Only hire nice people with winning personalities and a strong work ethic, who are intelligent, physically fit, and have a passion for service.”

Kate Blair spent ten years researching and writing her historical novel, The Hawthorne Inheritance, published by Sunbury Press in 2021. She has toured local councils on aging, bookstores, book groups and elder residences presenting a PowerPoint program detailing her experiences researching, writing, and finding a publisher.

Since then, she has acted on stages and screens large and small, particularly in the New England area, while writing a memoir that chronicles her experiences in theater, film and television, a joy that she’s eager to share with the world via a new book titled Furniture That Eats: 27 Takes from Film Sets at "Hollywood East."
