Hi, I am Ruth &

here is my story...

Every story has a beginning—and RLS Creativity Publishing started with a risk.

In 2009, Ruth L. Snyder saw an advertisement for a Canada-wide novice writing competition hosted by The Word Guild. With trepidation, she wrote about her journey through infertility into the world of adoption and special needs. A few weeks later, an unexpected email arrived: she had won first place.

That single “yes” became the spark for everything that followed.

From One Tweet to a Calling

Later that year, Ruth attended her first writing conference. With five children under twelve and a demanding role as a school board trustee, her biggest question was:

How do I fit writing into my very busy life?

One simple piece of advice rose to the top:

Choose one small action you can do every day.

For Ruth, that action was a tweet a day. Tweet after tweet, she learned the power of consistent writing and authentic connection. Readers responded. Writers engaged. Before long, people were asking her to explain how Twitter worked. That sparked her first self-published book—and opened the door for other writers asking for her expertise to bring their books to life.

From Challenge to Champion

In 2020, Ruth trained as a Beautiful Me life coach while walking through separation and divorce. Coaching, combined with assisted self-publishing, became an income for her family through a season of healing. Embedded in that was a deeper mission: to create a safe, supportive space for others to share their stories.

Ruth experienced how overwhelming it can be to write, publish, and market a book. That’s why RLS Creativity Publishing exists: to walk alongside authors through every stage of the journey.

OUR MISSION —

Publish 10,000 world-transforming titles and give back 20% of earnings to provide resources and practical help for women affected by domestic abuse.

At RLS Creativity Publishing, we do not believe in “one system fits all” solutions. You are not just another project—we treat your words with the same care we’d give our own.

We build partnerships that last. We support writers not only in their craft, but also through the realities of life—trauma, financial stress, self-doubt, and everything in between. And if we’re not the right fit for your story, we’ll tell you honestly.

But if we are the right fit, you’ll find a team who will stand beside you, cheer you on, and help you create a book that truly matters.

Whatever your challenge,

we will help you become a champion!

Because at the heart of RLS Creativity Publishing is this simple belief:

Your story is worth sharing,

and the world needs to hear it.
