Our Services
Here is more detail on what some of our services entail. Most projects wind up using a combination of these, and sometimes some things we never thought of before. Contact us and we’ll talk it over, then give you a quote.
-
- Coaching – Sometimes you just need a little guidance or encouragement to achieve your goals. Mike has helped a number of authors polish their skills and work their way through to success.
-
- Proofreading – We can fix typographical errors, correct basic grammatical and spelling errors, check in-text references, and help you spot other problems in your manuscript.
-
- Copy Editing – Here we dig a lot deeper, rewriting problem areas, helping clarify and resolve key problems with logical flow, helping develop characters or story lines, and even helping you restructure your book at the chapter level if necessary.
-
- Ghost Writing – If you have a story to tell, ranging from fiction to memoir, but you don’t have the time or writing skills to get it in publishable book form, we can take your project from idea to bookstore for you. We can work with your outline, your rough manuscript, or we can interview you and write your book from scratch.
-
- Pre-Press – We can do all the formatting and layout work necessary to produce a professional finished product. We can interface with your printer, or we can shepherd your book through Print On Demand resources like CreateSpace.
-
- eBook Production – We can format your book for all eBook formats, including Kindle, Nook, PDF, and iBook, with live Table of Contents, graphics, and Web links as necessary
-
- Book Marketing – Once your book is out in the world, you need to tell the world about it. We can refer you to some of the most creative and experienced book marketing resources available anywhere to help you with PR, media kits, media training, promotions, and more.
-
- Web and Social Media – We can help you showcase your work in a strong author Website, then communicate with your readers on Facebook, Twitter or other social media platforms.
