MEET THE FOUNDER
Joylynn M. Ross has sold over a million copies of her own books and has helped almost two dozen authors land book contracts worth over $2.5 million dollars during her nearly three decades in the publishing industry. She has also helped dozens of authors build book businesses that earn over six-figures in revenue with her Act Like an Author, Think Like a Business Conference and through her MBA in Publishing Programs. She began as a traditionally published author and worked as a literary agent before deciding to take full control over her publishing experience and income-earning potential by self-publishing her books. Her mission is to empower those with a life-saving, history-shaping, world-changing story to tell with the tools needed to reach those they are intended to serve.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
MARSHALL THOMPSON, AUTHOR
"I really appreciate this opportunity to discuss my project, Massacre Point, with Path To Publishing. I gained important and helpful insight and pointers for new directions I can take my story."
WILLESTHER DEVON HOLMES
AUTHOR - TOLEDO, OH
Phenomenally amazing! From the very moment I scheduled my literary consulting appointment, I just knew my literary dream had become reality. To be graced with the passionate driven "Literarist" herself (Joylynn M. Ross), was a blessing, and I learned many literary golden nuggets during our consultation. God truly appointed, and anointed the right one! Joylynn, you are blessed and highly favored!
KIMBERLEY HARRIS, BUSINESS OWNER - NORTH CAROLINA
"Joylynn is very informative! She has contagious laughter, character and spirit. I learn so much just from just interacting with her. She’s definitely a divine appointment in my life and business."
