"The Pheather Method: A Story of Inspiration and a Writing Method for Success" was developed to provide students with a writing system that guides them though how to produce a strong academic paper, while also offering academic professionals a mindset that honors the lived experience of the students they serve. For far too long, students have struggled with composing academic papers, establishing a writing structure, and honoring their voices in the process. Readers are left to piece together the finished product and often must fill in the blanks. This true story is centered on the life of the author, Pheather, and her relationship with education. Growing up in low-income neighborhoods, threatened by her environment, made it tough for her to embrace the light that shined within. As a young girl, she often pondered formal education's role in her life and knew early on that it did not reflect her reality.

One night after receiving a less than desirable grade on a paper at Harvard in her first semester, Pheather sat in her dorm room, stared at a blank computer screen, and wondered whether she belonged at one of the most prestigious schools in the world. Despair and frustration arose from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head and a warm sensation of panic fell over her. She could not escape the feeling of inadequacy while tears rolled down her cheeks. She began to pray. That night, Pheather's prayers were answered, and she approached writing assignments differently. She graduated from the institution with high scores and The Pheather Method was born.

What she learned in that time is that achieving sought after goals is nuanced, non-liner, difficult, yet worth it. Rooted in life lessons, academic prowess, and proven success, Pheather offers a writing system that produces winning results. It centers on the voice of the author, amplifies the unique gifts each of us carry to make the world a better place, and takes the reader on a journey of self-actualization and empowerment.
