Gentle Thoughts by Beth Mende Conny

Creativity expert Beth Mende Conny has written, edited and ghosted more than four dozen books and collections, more than a million copies of which are in print. She also is the founder of Write Directions, which helps writers get off the dime and into print. As such, and in her own words, she is a combo coach, consultant, whip-cracker and cheerleader.

Beth came up through the ranks as a newspaper reporter, feature writer and syndicated columnist. Her articles and quotations have appeared throughout the Web, as well as in newspapers and magazines across the country.

Fearless Creativity grew out of the curriculum Beth developed for book clients who needed a way to tap their creativity, overcome their blocks and achieve their publishing goals. As she soon discovered, however, the techniques readily translated to other creative ventures, be they personal or professional.

A gifted speaker and trainer, Beth lives in the Washington, DC, area.
