Gail’s Bio:

“Born in Boston, I graduated from Albertus Magnus College and earned an MBA from Yale University. After fifteen years in the corporate world focused on strategic planning and marketing, I closed my consulting practice to begin a new adventure – home-schooling my three sons, then ages 8, 6 and 3. For the next decade, we learned and grew together, exploring all our Santa Barbara, CA neighborhood had to offer, traveling around the U.S. and living in both Mexico and France.

Later I lived in southern Arizona where I taught finance & management at the University of Arizona South and yoga in my home studio. Most recently I’ve become ‘happily homeless,’ exploring parts of the U.S. and Latin America as I continue to grow my publishing services business, www.DudleyCourtPress.com. Thanks to technology, I’m always in touch with my clients and team, as well as with family and friends, around the globe.

As publisher and author coach at Dudley Court Press, I help authors clarify and achieve their publishing goals. My way of living a joyful life today is to assist business and wellness professionals get their books done, and done right. Using technology and taking advantage of all the offerings within the publishing industry today, my team helps authors make the right strategic choices for writing, designing, publishing and marketing meaningful books. If you’ve got a book project in mind, or if you’ve got questions about living your live more joyfully, please visit www.DudleyCourtPress.com and drop me a note.

Life on this Earth is short – why not make it sweet? Here’s to your joy! -Gail Woodard”
