How is anyone ever going to experience the unique and inspirational story brewing inside you if you never tell it? Don’t you
think it’s time to put your words in print so they can live on forever, even though you won’t? Whether you tell it through fiction,
nonfiction, autobiography, or poetry, believe it or not, people are waiting to be moved by a story just like yours. Don’t make them
wait any longer.
*CREATIVE CONSULTING, COACHING, CRITIQUING- Whether you've begun your project or have already completed it,
Creative Consulting can benefit you. For those just embarking on or still in the process of completing their projects, this service
provides you with the assistance you need to move forward confidently. By discussing your project at length, your goals once it is
completed, what areas you're most concerned with needing help in, and even mapping out details, you will have a clearer view of
how to proceed. Once you are on the right path, if you still feel unsure about your ability to conquer the entire writing process,
extensive coaching is available to help guide you along the way, enabling you to complete what you've started. Those who have
finished product can also partake in Creative Consulting by receiving guidance about the next steps to getting their work
published. This can include discussion about agents, publishing houses, self- and mainstream publishing, and a brief review of your
completed work, or parts of it, to establish whether or not you are ready to approach the publishing arena. Not sure if your story
is up to par and need a professional opinion? Have your project critiqued. This is an important step in the pre-publishing process,
especially if you plan to shop your book to agents and publishing houses. You only get one chance at impressing them, so making
sure your story is well put-together is crucial.
*BOOK JACKET COPYWRITING- What's written on the back cover of your book will make a huge difference in its sales. Many a
book has been returned to the shelf after someone's reading the back, simply because it sounded less than appealing. Creating
the right text is one of the most important parts of preparing your book for publication. If it lacks the "punch" needed to grab
your potential readers, you may very well lose out on hundreds, even thousands of dollars in sales. If you want to make sure
people run, not walk, to the register with your book in hand, a synopsis that speaks volumes will make that happen.
*GENERAL DOCUMENTS- Inevitably, there will come a time when you will be required to compile an extremely important
document that can either make or break your situation. College-entrance essays, business letters, statements, and personal
documents are several items from the list. Unfortunately, if "Word-Savvy" is not your middle name, or if you have a hard time
expressing your thoughts on paper, these types of documents can bring on a lot of undue stress. At Punctuality Editing Service, I
will turn your underdeveloped product into a coherent, well-worded piece that you'll feel good about signing your name to in the
end.
