From Idea to Influence: How Dr. Michael Copeland and Schwartzen Precil Are Redefining What It Means to Be an Author

Biz Weekly Contributor

Dr. Michael Copeland and Schwartzen Precil aren’t just teaching authors to write; they’re helping them transform their stories into platforms for success.

In a world where anyone can write and publish a book, the true power lies in how that book is used. The key difference between a book that collects dust on a shelf and one that builds a lasting influence is strategy. Dr. Michael Copeland and Schwartzen Precil have cracked the code, and they’re on a mission to show aspiring authors exactly how to turn their stories into legacy-building platforms. Through their upcoming Author Power Session, they’re teaching writers how to transform a manuscript into a tool for lasting impact.

The Real Power of Authors: Creating Influence Beyond the Pages

What sets Dr. Copeland and Precil apart from other authors and publishing experts is their unique blend of experience and insight. They understand that authorship isn’t just about writing a book, it’s about positioning your message in a way that opens doors and builds a lasting impact. Their philosophy is simple but powerful: Write it. Publish it. Build with it.

For Dr. Michael Copeland, the mission to teach others how to leverage their stories for influence is personal. As a recognized educator, mentor, and 2025 Author of the Year, Dr. Copeland’s work extends beyond writing. He teaches his clients how to build platforms that align with their unique voice and expertise, allowing them to create lasting change in their communities and industries.

As he puts it, “Your book isn’t just a story, it’s a gateway to opportunities, from speaking engagements to professional recognition.” Through his strategic approach to publishing, Dr. Copeland helps authors move from simply finishing their books to using them as vehicles for influence.

Schwartzen Precil’s journey reflects the same transformative power of storytelling. A former foster youth who overcame adversity to become an award-winning author and entrepreneur, Precil has turned his personal story into a platform for others. His company, Hero Publishing, focuses on empowering everyday individuals to turn their pain into purpose and their stories into published works. Precil’s story teaches that no matter your background, your voice matters, and it deserves to be heard.

“Your story isn’t just personal, it’s someone else’s blueprint,” Precil emphasizes. His work guides others to realize that what they’ve lived through can provide the blueprint for others to follow, turning adversity into empowerment.

Together, Dr. Copeland and Precil offer a comprehensive approach to authorship that combines mindset, strategy, and practical execution. Their upcoming virtual masterclass will be a game-changer for anyone who wants to leverage their story and use it to open doors.

The Author Power Session: From Manuscript to Movement

The Author Power Session is more than just a writing workshop; it’s a masterclass designed to take authors from talking about writing a book to leveraging that book for real-world success. In this session, participants will learn how to take their finished or unfinished manuscripts and turn them into a platform that generates income, builds credibility, and opens doors to speaking, coaching, and other opportunities.

Dr. Copeland and Precil teach their attendees that the process doesn’t stop with the last word on the page. According to Dr. Copeland, “A finished book should work for you long after you’ve written it.” And Precil adds, “A book isn’t just a personal story, it’s a tool that others can use to learn, grow, and transform.”

The Author Power Session will break down three critical pillars of authorship that have the power to change everything:

  1. Authority Before Authorship
    • Stop thinking of yourself as just a writer and start positioning yourself as a leader. Your book is a tool to build authority and trust. In this session, authors will learn how to shift from “writer” to “influencer.”
    • Core Truth: Your book establishes trust before you ever enter the room.
  2. Clarity Creates Completion
    • Many aspiring authors stall because they don’t know exactly what they’re writing or why. By clarifying your purpose and audience, you eliminate procrastination and writer’s block.
    • Core Truth: Clear books get written. Confused books stay stuck.
  3. Publish to Build a Platform
    • Publishing is just the first step. Dr. Copeland and Precil show you how to turn your book into a gateway for speaking engagements, workshops, and income streams. The goal isn’t just to publish, it’s to build influence.
    • Core Truth: A finished book should open doors, not sit on shelves.

Real-Time Coaching: A Personal Touch for Every Author

To make this session even more valuable, Dr. Copeland and Precil offer live coaching. Authors will have the chance to submit their book ideas and receive real-time feedback from both experts. Whether it’s guidance on choosing the right publishing path, refining a book concept, or tackling branding and marketing, this interactive component ensures that each participant leaves with a personalized, actionable plan.

Who Should Attend?

This masterclass is for anyone who is serious about transforming their book into a platform for success:

  • Aspiring authors ready to take their writing seriously
  • First-time authors looking for guidance
  • Self-published authors who want to take their work to the next level
  • Coaches, speakers, and entrepreneurs eager to leverage their book for business growth
  • Leaders who want to use their story to create lasting change

What You’ll Walk Away With

At the end of the Author Power Session, participants won’t just leave inspired, they’ll leave equipped with the tools to create real-world results:

  •  A clear book concept
  •  A simple writing plan
  •  A publishing roadmap
  •  A personal author strategy

This Is Bigger Than Writing a Book

What Dr. Copeland and Precil teach isn’t just about putting your thoughts on paper; it’s about taking ownership of your story and using it to create lasting influence. They emphasize that authorship is an opportunity to leave a legacy, one that educates, empowers, and inspires. When you tell your story with purpose, it can have an impact for generations.

“The key to transforming your story is realizing that your voice matters,” says Precil. “When you tell your story with intention, you not only change your own life, you change the lives of others.”
