Who do you work with?

Entrepreneurs and small business owners who have been in business for between two and five years, in addition to college applicants and aspiring authors. Those who are ready to invest in professional-level quality, for top notch content which sets you apart from your competition, which attracts and keeps your reader’s attention.

What’s the process?

Most services start with an introductory phone call to discuss your project. I’ll take notes, give expert advice, and for larger-scope projects, send a proposal customized to your situation and business. Once you agree to move forward, we begin!

Why should I hire a professional writer / editor?

Sometimes what’s in your head makes sense in your head. As a professional writer and editor, I give you the benefit of an objective perspective so your message is clear and polished, geared toward your goals and the person who will be reading it.

What’s the typical turnaround time?

We prioritize being efficient and will give an estimated turnaround once the project is cleared to move forward. Projects begin with initial invoices or deposits being paid.

I want to write my book / I have a manuscript that I want to publish. What do I need to do?

Let’s talk! No matter where you are in the process, I will tailor a plan so your book takes shape.

I don’t have a manuscript yet. Can you help me?

Absolutely! I’ll provide accountability and give writing prompts to get stimulate your creativity, and move through chapter by chapter. At the end, you’ll have a manuscript ready to submit to publishers.

How do you charge?

Another good question. Flat fees are typically assessed based on the scope of the project. This way there are no surprises for you. If the project needs to go further than initially estimated, you will receive a new quote for approval before moving forward.

What kind of results will I get from working with you?

Results cannot be predicted and are based on a number of different variables. We see the biggest impact from those who remain committed to the process, who actively participate, and who consistently implement the techniques discussed. We will use our best professional efforts throughout, applying our expertise to your benefit, and we’re thrilled when clients tell us how they’ve seen results based on the content we develop for them or their business!
