Some of Jenkins’ keynote topics include: “Transitions: How to Take Your Dreams Out of Neutral,” “Discovering the Beauty in You!” and “Get the Hook-Up: Establishing a Community Presence.” She co-produced the historical documentary with Positive Image Productions, “Do You Remember?

Jeremiah 29:11 - God has a "good plan" for all of us, sometimes we must call it forth and possess it like the children of Israel did their promised land.  That required faith and obedience on their part and a supernatural impartation on His part, the Holy Spirit.

I love authors.  When I sought the will of God for 2012, He told me to focus on helping authors.  I've been called to empower, exhort, and equip them to fufill their God purpose.  It brings me immense joy to do so.  That's where America's Favorite Author came from.  It's my way of thanking them for having the courage to put pen to paper and getting their message out to the masses. 

I'll do more than that.  I wrote a sensational book that helps the aspiring author and the seasoned author navigate the new paridigm shift in the literary industry called Authorpreneurship.  Every tip and strategy that I use is "in the book."  So I encourage them to purchase it from Amazon or from my website: www.sharoncjenkins.com.

America's Favorite Author is a "people's choice" centered contest for authors based on the American Idol format.  It levels the playing field for self-published authors and assists traditionally published authors in expanding their territory to build a larger readership.  We are currently taking nominations until July 25th and the contest officially begins on August 1st.  All you have to do is send your nomination to info@americasfavoriteauthor.com or go to www.authorsnetworkingsummit.com to place your nomination.
