Have you thought about writing a book, but believe it's only for professional writers? In this lighthearted presentation, Dora will show you how everyday life, such as parenting, career challenges, pets, and health issues, can be an inspiration to write your first (or next) book, even if you never had any training in writing. You will also have a chance to check out Dora's debut novel Choice, (rated 5/5 by Readers' Favorite!), a mother-daughter story from the perspective of a service dog.
