Speaking Engagements



As a speaker, I want to meet the needs of my audience and provide additional resources. I am broadening my areas of speciality and am available to present a myriad of topics.

To date I have presented Before Publication Marketing Solutions. 

I am also available to speak on writing topics to both adult and children's groups. 






Before Publication Marketing Solutions is a 2 hour presentation complete with information, applications, practice, individual integration, and resources.

Before Publication Marketing Solutions was presented June 7, 2014 in Lansing Michigan at the Great Lakes ACFW monthly meeting. Here are some comments from those who attended: 






"After fifteen years of writing and knocking on publishing house doors finally relying on self-publication to get my work out there, I found Mary’s insights about pre-publication work not only valuable but essential knowledge that I lacked.  Her interactive presentation was not condescending, which produced incentives for further goal setting and hope for the future." Rohn Federbush


"Mary Vee  - presented MARKETING AS A PRE-PUBBED writer today in Lansing, MI - IT WAS FANTASTIC and there were several of us who benefited from it - WORTH IT _ ALL OF IT_I'm just so sorry she had to sacrifice her last day at WRITE TO PUBLISH In Wheaton IL - to get back in time to meet us in Lansing this morning - THAT my ACFW Great Lakes Chapter friends - is dedication and a LOVE for serving other writers - THANK YOU, MARY VEE!" Joy Melville


"Valuable information, which Mary presented very
well! You did such a wonderful job, Mary Vee! Thanks for putting together such a valuable workshop!"   Kathleen Rouser

"Enjoyed the workshop thanks for all your preparation, so much good information."  Nelle Cooper





Mary Vee is a pre-published, espresso-charged writer seeking not only publication, but also to provide encouragement and marketing tools for other Christian fiction writers/authors.

One of my absolute favorite classes at ACFW this last year was the medical fiction class. That wasn't the real title, I can't remember what snazzy name the instructors gave it--BUT three stellar medical professionals, who are also Christian Fiction writers, presented great information then opened the time for questions. We students asked them all kinds of questions like what kind of poison would kill a ..., and tons of other questions. It was sooooo much fun, and informative.     I asked Candace, who was one of those fabulous teachers, to join us and share  how God has led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said: God Gave Me a Wake-up Fall The story won’t surprise folks who hav...

My mother kept it all these years and it’s now in my possession. I laugh when I read those ten handwritten pages. At the tim...

She taught the first class I attended at ACFW. Her husband graciously showed, enduring Julie's stories. She taught how to write Christian Romance. We laughed and learned so much that night.  I asked her to share her writing journey with us. Here is what she wrote: My Journey As a Christian Romance Writer … My journey as a romance author actually came LONG before my journey with God. It happened the moment I read Gone With the Wind at the age of twelve. The instant that Scarlett seared Rhett with a look on the winding staircase of Twelve Oaks, I was hooked, and my “romance-writing career” began with a 150-page, single-spaced ms. ent...
