We had the good fortune of connecting with Patrice Sterling and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Patrice, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I combined two things I know well that others often ask me about- family and writing. Twenty-Two Publishing was established as a vehicle for individuals to share their family stories. It is essential to have a space to address the issues and experiences that shape us.

I always want to encourage folks to talk about their journey. Your testimony may be the remedy to someone else’s problem. By writing it and sharing it with the world, you then affirm others’ thoughts and, for some, their actions. Reading your story and gaining wisdom through the lessons learned is often the only avenue by which people find answers.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Twenty-Two Publishing is an avenue for folks to tell their stories through writing. I work with them every step of the way to ensure it is their intent, their voice, and their message that is communicated. I offer writing and marketing coaching to get them to and through the finish line.

My business is different in that we are specifically featuring family related journeys/stories.

I’ve learned to drown out the negative talk. Know your assignment and move forward in it.
I want the world to know that Twenty=Two Publishing is all about authenticity and integrity. If you are ready to write your story connect with us.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I am forever grateful to my family and friends for their encouragement and support. Additionally, my mentor, Alandria Lloyd, founder of the InspreU Network. Alandria worked with me 1:1 to ensure I was fully prepped to launch.
