When is the last time you spent the weekend with a ten-time published author?
I love hanging out with writers, aspiring authors, and author business builders. You'll soon realize, I'm just like you and was once where you areâwith a dream of writing my first book. Now, I'm honored to share my knowledge of the publishing industry with Christian women to package your stories into the book of your dreams! Books change livesâyours and your readers!
This retreat will create the path forward for you and your book.

You'll save time working with a professional coach AND learn skills to cut your writing time in half! You'll have sessions and over 28 hours of access to me to get your book writing and publishing questions answered paving a clear path forward!

Why I started the Beach Retreat
"I help women tell their stories to bring glory to God."
Brenda A. Haire
I've been in your shoes. God called me to write, and I had no idea where to start or what a book framework even was. Now, with ten published books and counting, I thrive in using my gift of integration and creativity to help other Christian women tell their stories.
After being told I was a nobody by a traditional publisher, I successfully and professionally self-published ten books personally and will help you do the same. I work with authors from around the world. This weekend, we're live in Port Arkansas, Texas! Let's start your first or next book at this cozy retreat! I promise you'll have aha moments and God-bumps!

"Brenda has been my go-to resource!"
Her knack for remembering details, and understanding of the writing process and the idiosyncrasies of publishing made her the obvious choice for my questions.

More testimonials!
"Brenda has this unique ability ..."
Coach Brenda has this unique ability to see through to each authorâs next step individually. She helped me determine the best option for my large manuscript to keep it as reader-friendly as possible while not compromising content.
~Carolyn Davis
"I am forever indebted to Brenda for the feedback that she gave."
I am so happy that she trusted her gut and said, âHey, this may not be the popular thing. This may not be what you want to hear, but you just might want to consider something else.â And because of that, I now have this {book cover}, and I am 10 times more proud of it than I was before. So for that I have to say thank you so much. This would not have happened without you, and I cannot thank you enough.
~ Nicole Smith, Author and Motivational Speaker
