“Crystal’s presentation was informative, encouraging, and insightful. As she pointed out, ‘This [writing] is a calling from God,’ and when He’s the One doing the calling, then He has purpose.”

“I highly recommend Crystal Caudill’s Publishing Paths Workshop. She is articulate, and presented a thorough overview that was realistic, including pros and cons of publishing choices. If you are at a place to pursue publishing, this is a must-attend class that will equip you with information to help you make a decision that is right for your book.”
–Becky Kiely, Royal Writers Conference Attendee
“I learned a lot about publishing options. As a beginner writer, I have a lot to ponder and sort through, so this was very helpful.”
— Debby Young, Royal Writers Conference Attendee
“Crystal Caudill presented “Genres” to our writer’s group in Lexington. At the end of our time together, not only did I have more knowledge about different types of stories I could read, I also felt challenged to try out different types of writing I can try for the Lord.”
— Kristy Horine, Lexington Writers Group Leader
“Crystal Caudill’s ability to communicate is stellar. She presents herself as well prepared and knowledgeable. Whether the audience is comprised of beginning writers, multi-published writers, or a contains both, she has the ability to speak to all levels and bring something fresh to each perspective. I appreciated what she brought at the Kentucky Christian Writers Conference in 2020 and I look forward to the opportunity to learn more from her in the future!”Â

“Crystal Caudill’s Plotting 101 presentation is a master class in short hand. She clearly lays out an approachable, comprehensive pattern for authors to follow in any genre. She condensed time-consuming research into a simple linear construction. God bless her!”
— Susan Sams Baggott, KCWC Attendee
