^{"The world is like the skin of the chameleon. It changes fast."}    

   This Ghanaian proverb sums up much of what the life of a writer is about.  This proverb aptly serves as the motivating credo for Chameleon Creek Press, a literary arts communications group headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Serving the aspiring to accomplished writer, Chameleon Creek Press privately counsels writers -- as a mentor and a coach.  Once published, Chameleon Creek Press provides writers with essential creative services specializing in media, marketing, events coordination and an array of promotional services.

Your Professional Mentor

  As many writers can attest, once published, it isn't long before others will seek your "free advice" over lunch or will call to ask, "Can I pick your brain?" Frankly, published writers seldom can or are willing to invest their valuable time & expertise.  Often engaged full-time in professional careers outside of the literary arts, authors must reserve their limited time to create and nurture their own projects.

 Becky Chavarría-Cháirez is an author/playwright/writer who partners with the serious writer as mentor, coach and confidante.  Writing a manuscript is just the beginning.  Chameleon Creek Press can individually guide a writer as they fine-tune  their work and pursue a publisher.  Services offered may include  accessing your marketability, researching potential publishers and/or publications, developing query letters, packaging your proposal and helping you build a strong case to present publishers about your work.  Many writers just need someone to give their marketing or media packages a thorough makeover. Others seek a coach to prepare them for doing media interviews while on book tours.
