This Book Is Inspired By Suellen Brook
Leadership & Life Coach
Suellen Brook always said she'd never write a book because no one would believe her.
She has come to realise that many people need to hear her stories to learn to navigate life's crazy roller coaster that throws us all left, right and up side down. We all have very special moments of time that we need to share to help others also learn that they too can succeed in some of life's toughest situations.
Suellen's passion is to help others, and she is one who doesn't like to stand still for too long. She often hears, "I don't know how you do it!". One of her mottos "Life Just Ride It", sums up her full outlook on life.
Suellen lives near Noosa in Queensland Australia. She has a degree in teaching, holds an NLP Master Practioner, CPD Mental Health Adults and Children Qualifications. She is a Master Facilitator of Equine Assisted Learning, an author of 4 books, a speaker and facilitator of Leadership and Teamwork. As well as a State and National Level Horse Judge.
Her most exciting author's accolades so far have been 5 #1 International Bestseller Categories, plus an International Book Award for resilience building.
She enjoys writing children's books about the antics of her animals and looks forward to publishing them.

STILL NOT SURE?
Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1: Who can contribute to the anthology?
We're seeking submissions from anyone who has supported someone with PTSD - family members, friends, partners, colleagues, or caregivers. You don't need to be a professional writer, just someone with an authentic story to share.
Question 2: What should I write about?
Share your personal journey... The challenges, breakthroughs, lessons learned, and moments of connection. We're interested in how PTSD has impacted your relationship and your own life, and the strategies you've developed to navigate this experience.
Question 3: How long should my submission be?
Stories typically range from 1,500 to 2,500 words. We value quality over quantity, what matters most is the authenticity and emotional resonance of your story.
Question 4: Will I get paid for my contribution?
As a contributing author, you'll receive 5 complimentary copies of the book and the opportunity to purchase additional copies at a discount. The primary compensation is becoming a #1 International Bestselling published author in a meaningful anthology that will help others. All the editing, marketing, promotion and publishing, plus training sessions is taken care of.
Question 5: What support will I receive as a contributor?
Our editorial team will work closely with you to develop your story. We provide guidance on structure, content, and writing style while preserving your unique voice. We also offer resources for emotional support throughout the writing process. Along with this you will work with a team that will hold your hand every step of the way.
Question 6: How do you know the book will become a bestseller?
In the last 18 months we have produced 8 #1 Bestselling books, so we know the process and strategy inside out.
Question 7: I'm not a good writer. Should I still submit?
Absolutely. You do not need to be a professional writer. We are looking for authentic experiences, not perfect prose. Our editors will work with you to shape your story and ensure it is told clearly and powerfully while preserving your unique voice and message.
Question 8: Can I write about my experience if the person with PTSD hasn't consented?
We encourage you to write your truth while being mindful of privacy. You can change identifying details (names, locations, specific events) to protect anonymity. The focus should be on your journey and feelings as a supporter, rather than sharing private details about someone else's experience without their permission.
Question 9: How will the book be published and marketed?
The book will be professionally published and available globally in paperback, hardcover, and eBook formats on major platforms like Amazon. It will be promoted through social media campaigns, press releases, podcasts, and partnerships with mental health organisations to ensure it reaches a wide audience.
Question 10: Do I retain the rights over my chapter?
You own 100% of the rights to your story and you can use it as you best please.
Question 11: What's the timeline from start to finish?
Once we have all the co-authors we will be working on a 3 month window from start to finish.
