MORE ABOUT THE SERVICES AVAILABLE
There are many processes involved in preparing a book for publication. You may only require one of them, or you might want support with all of the following:
Developmental editing/reviewing: Looking at the bigger picture elements of a book and advising on things such as the overall plot, structure, characters and pace.
Copy editing: Checking the finer details. This includes looking at grammar, spelling and style issues, along with fact-checking and highlighting inconsistencies.
Proofreading: Reviewing documents for errors and correcting them.
Ghostwriting: Writing or rewriting elements of your book for you based on your ideas.
Formatting and Preparing to Publish on Amazon: You can choose to publish your book as a Kindle (eBook) only version or have printed versions that are sold on Amazon.
Translating: Translating books or documents into English from Spanish. Other languages will be considered, depending on the aim of the publication.
Artwork: *Wherever you require artwork, such as a book cover, I will outsource this to a fellow professional.
