Let My Experience Be Your Asset
It really is all about the story
Before going to work for myself, I spent nearly twenty years with The Walt Disney Company, worked in advertising for Heil-Brice in Newport Beach, and led multimedia and content development teams for two large Orange County churches.
Along the way, I've written speeches and video scripts for CEOs, COOs and CFOs (including Disney's), penned jokes for Jay Leno, and "punched up" weekend messages for a passel of pastors.
I've been a contributing editor of The Purpose Driven Connection magazine (which was published by Readers Digest, Inc.), developed, written or co-written a dozen small group curriculum study guides, and crafted hundreds of video scripts.
These days, I help people and organizations discover, develop and share their stories, and I continue to write, edit and direct projects in all forms of print and electronic media, from website strategies and marketing campaigns and programs to annual reports, speeches, video and film scripts, press releases, blog posts and articles.
Recently, I've spent a good deal of time in the non-fiction book world, and provide manuscript analysis and content development help to several clients.
If you want to develop a book manuscript or proposal, or simply have a content development project to discuss, please contact me at craig@craighodgkins.com.
My most recent book, The Privilege of Persecution, written with Carl Moeller and David Hegg, and published by Moody Publishing.

Uncompensated Spokespersons Speak Out:
Carolyn Gardner
Senior Writer, Disney Entertainment Productions
He's witty, wise, intelligent, inspiring, creative, and joyful when undertaking or inviting others to join him on his quest for knowledge. Paired with like-minded colleagues, always ready to veer down a delightfully diversionary path. As "keeper of the flame," he's a keeper.
Jan Lynn
Director of Communications, Eastside Church
Craig has a remarkable ability to conceptualize "inside the box" - the given parameters of any project - and an attention to detail that ensures all his projects meet objectives with quality. Plus, he's just a darn fun guy to work with.
David Chrzan
Chief of Staff, Saddleback Church
Craig is a great developmental thinker and conceptual designer who has a distinctive and creative talent in writing.
Lorraine O'Keefe
Owner, Thinkin' Big Communications
Craig's energy and enthusiasm is contagious. He knows how to bring key messages to life on the page, on the screen and up front. He is a lifelong student of his craft and passionate about making a difference. My clients enjoy working with him.
