  This is my first experience of self-publishing a book to Draft2Digital and I'm not being flippant when I say I couldn't have done it without Anna. I'm being honest. The many steps regarding the US IRS, the legal documentation and the financial instructions were terrifying. Very stressful. Anna was calm and observant of the whole process. She saw many things I had missed. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her business set-up is also very professional.

  Anna Ceguera's expert guidance has been invaluable in navigating the complexities of the legal processes and logistical organization required for the successful execution of the book festival. Her expertise has been invaluable, and her leadership has guided us effectively throughout this process.

  I really enjoyed Anna's workshops. She was able to tailor slightly to what I did and didn't need and has been very accommodating in providing useful links, tips and tricks! Really appreciate the effort. Thank you.

  Anna was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Loved that she listened to what I wanted to do and then helped me to achieve it in such a short time.   Thank you.

  The students in my 3rd - 5th grade virtual Book Club LOVED Anna's book Get Off My Lawn! So, it was not surprise that they were over the moon about her visit to our final book club meeting. The students asked smart and probing questions and Anna was engaging and warm as they interviewed her. A few students even expressed interest in working with Anna on promoting her books in the future!

  Pacific Preparatory (a virtual 1:1 school) hosted a book club specifically centered around "Get Off My Lawn!" for third, fourth, and fifth grades. We were delighted to receive signed books so quickly, even with international shipping (we're in the United States). Anna was communicative, professional, and engaging. The students, all in 3-5th grades, were absolutely enthralled by her expertise. It was evident that she spent time preparing for the event with special attention to detail. For example, she tasked the participants with an "older or younger" activity that challenged them to reflect upon the evidence that described the ages of each character. The students were so enthralled with the activity that they seemed to forget they were learning! We'd be delighted to welcome Anna back for another visit!
