Growth into 2024

As this year comes to a close, I’m excited about the many successes you may have enjoyed.  

For those authors whose books we have published, we are so happy for and proud of you.

For those of you still on your way, we are inspired by your ideas and books yet to come.

And for you, dear reader, who may have been following us for years, I celebrate whatever way you have grown this past year.

In the 15 years that Author Bridge Media has served authors, our company has grown from strength to strength. I’m happy about our next phase of growth.

I’m thrilled to share that Author Bridge Media now has a new owner and CEO, who I trust to lead the company to new horizons.

Our new CEO has 13 years in the publishing business and has worked closely with me in growing Author Bridge. She has built our company from the ground up, creating company systems and managing many of our authors’ projects. In fact, she was the one who first suggested our company name—Author Bridge.

Most importantly, our new CEO shares our company purpose of transforming people’s lives through stories. She was part of the team that first wrote our company missions and values, and she lives our core values of gratitude, resourcefulness, alignment, possibility, partnership and laughter. 

Many of you already know her. Laurie Aranda has served various roles in the company, from Operations Manager to Publishing Manager to Chief Operating Officer. 

In 2022, I joyfully sold Author Bridge Media to Laurie. I’m happy to say she now leads the company as a business owner, Chief Executive Officer and Publishing Director.


Congratulations, Laurie!

Going forward, I retain the position of Managing Editor, focusing primarily on ghostwriting and coaching authors. This allows me to focus on my first love—writing books and working with authors.

If you would like to talk about your book ideas we’re happy to chat.
