The Anthology Collective
Where authors unite annually to create purposeful, published anthologies.
An annual author collaboration for those who want to publish with purpose. I guide the project as your project manager, creating the theme, coordinating submissions, and supporting every author through coaching, publishing guidance, and launch strategy. Authors partner with me annually to bring their voices together into a curated, high-impact anthology. I guide each author through a structured, intentional process that removes the overwhelm and keeps the project on track. You won’t just learn how to contribute to an anthology; you’ll learn how to write with purpose, stay accountable, and complete your work with integrity. This is a space built for collaboration, support, and results, giving every author in the collective what they need to show up fully on the page.

La'Toya Guillory wasn’t just a contributing author to my book; she was my book coach! I didn’t know the first thing about compiling an anthology. I booked a session with La’Toya, and the rest was history. She walked with me and the authors through the entire process and helped me navigate the ups and downs of publishing. She made sure our voices were preserved, honored, and heard. Thank you, La’Toya, and Empowered With Purpose LLC (Now The Intentional Author LLC) for helping me turn this vision into a published REALITY. I’m forever grateful!
