Meet the Founders
“Our goal is to help you find the courage to take the first step in accomplishing your publishing dreams—and then see you all the way to the finish line!”
Elizabeth “Liz” Horst, CEO and Co-Founder of Elizabeth’s Writing Corner
Since she was a young girl, Elizabeth has been a writer, using short stories to spur her imagination and bring joy and humor to other people’s lives. She developed her skills and expertise in writing and editing both formally and organically over the past twenty years and continues to learn everything she can to assist others in the industry.
As CEO of the Writing Corner, Elizabeth works one-on-one with aspiring and experienced authors to finetune their craft and publish their best works. Her favorite part of coaching clients is seeing the joy and satisfaction they experience once they meet their own goals and their publishing dreams finally come true.
“Faint not, fear not, dare to believe!”
Donald “Donnie” T. Hardison II, CMO and C0-Founder of Elizabeth’s Writing Corner
The initial idea and inspiration behind Elizabeth’s Writing Corner came from Donnie, since he first recognized Elizabeth’s hidden talent in writing fiction and motivated her to apply her abilities professionally. A multi-talented individual himself, Donnie grew up with the dream of writing and publishing his own books and brought his expertise in research to find out how to make that happen. After many decades of sharing his life story with all who would listen, he successfully published two memoirs and is currently working on his third.
As CMO, Donnie manages the Writing Corner’s social media and marketing, and he also enjoys offering his artistic talent to newly published authors through promotional videos and graphics. His best talent is on full display as a memoir coach, since he is a strong advocate for fellow writers who are brave enough to share their stories with the world, and he brings clarity, honesty, and encouragement to all who need it.

More About Our Journey
The two of us have the hearts of adventurers, seeing ourselves on a life journey that is taking us far and wide and looking to spread a message of hope and love to all we encounter.
We especially enjoy exploring the great outdoors, from the Appalachian Mountains to the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Today, our biggest focus is on raising our two young boys and running our business in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
For more about us and an even more intimate look at our lives, check out our four books! Both of our works are intensely personal. Donnie’s two publications being memoirs, they come straight from his heart. Meanwhile, Elizabeth’s two short story collections show a more veiled peek into her inner life, but they are just as honest and real.
We look forward to connecting with you soon!
