Embedded Files
A wordsmithing team like no other.
We all have a story to tell. But taking it from random thoughts, jotted down in the moment, to beautifully published works can get challenging. That's where we can help. From proofreading with a human eye to copy and developmental editing, let us help you polish that prose.
Then, when it's ready to publish, we can help you make it shine.
Proofreading
Proofreading Services include checking spelling, grammar and punctuation, as well as providing minor copy editing. Whether it's a first pass or last pass, we give the same amount of time and attention to your content that you give to writing it to begin with.
Editing
Let us provide a thorough and in-depth edit of your entire manuscript. From words and phrasing of individual sentences, to overall structure and style. We'll smooth out transitions, and examine pacing, plot, character development, and setting. Did we mention we also review website content? Product Descriptions? Email templates? If you've got something to say, we'll help you say it.
Formatting
The great equalizer. Formatting your book for digital or print publishing can be a daunting and frankly, a nail-biting task. Your manuscript deserves to be showcased. Save your nails the trauma, and let us do the work.
Cover Design
When it comes to books, today's readers simply don't take George Eliot's advice to heart. Perhaps they should, particularly with books. The truth is, you need a cover that reflects the words within. Just in case someone is out there judging your book by its cover.

From digital content and presentations to monographs and yes, even an entire website. If there are words involved, we'll help you find them.
