Need A Writer?

Elisabeth (Lisa) Freeman/ Writer & Speaker

Lisa is eager to share her talents and testimony about how she became a published author. With very little high school and no formal education, Lisa landed her first writing job with Guideposts for Teens Magazine! And her first year writing, she won the Writer of the Year Award at the American Christian Writer's in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Since then, she's won numerous awards and freelanced for more than twenty magazines. Now she teaches writing courses to others--online and in group, seminar settings. (For fees and classes see below)

Lisa has other testimonies to share as well. A life-long battle with fear, depression, and anxiety disorders--left her a victim, trapped in her own home for over two years (agoraphobic), afraid to drive, enter a grocery store, or even step outside. Today she walks freely--and not only writes for life--but she speaks about her new found freedom in life!

Lisa has spoken at writing groups, women's meetings, classrooms, churches, and worked in various Children's and Youth Ministries over the past eleven years.

Lisa is excited about her newest book "Run For Your Life" (a true story about her life as a runaway teen) which was released Oct 2005. (See below for topics she's currently speaking on.)

Although writing is her first love, speaking and teaching rank second. She enjoys speaking to individuals of all ages, races, religions, and ethnic backgrounds.

Aside from speaking to groups, Lisa also hosted a local television ministry for over four years entitled "A Time To Heal". She premiered as a guest speaker on Family Life Radio for a program entitled Family Forum about her book, "The Pictures That Destroy the Mind". 

Lisa resides in Michigan with her husband, John, and their four teenage children. John and Lisa enjoy traveling and look forward to a prolific life of speaking, teaching, and ministering to various groups, churches, and organizations all over the USA.
