Hi. I'm Laura Matney, book coach certified by Author Accelerator and host of the Polished Page Pack.

Did you know many communities are facing a decrease in funding to their libraries from both the federal and local level? That's why supporting Friends of the Library is so important to me. They are working tirelessly to remind local and state leaders here in my community of the important and varied roles libraries play in peoples lives.

I am proud to donate $1 to them for every new subscriber who joins the Polished Page Pack. Which means not only will you get immediate access to these ten fantastic freebies to help you on your writing journey, but you will also make a direct impact to an important cause.

Way to go!
