Fiction

You have a story burning inside you but feel totally lost when it comes to turning it into a book. I can help you with every aspect of self-publishing your fictional story as an ebook or paperback.

• Research: My specialty is historical fiction, which always requires a great deal of research. I can do some simple fact checking for you or research an entire time period relevant to the setting in your book.
• Outline: I can create an outline for your book or assist you in creating it yourself.
• Ghostwriting: I can write your entire book, write part of your book, or rewrite what you have already written. In any case, you own all the rights to your book.
• Formatting:I will submit the work to you in a formatted word document that is suitable to be uploaded on KDP as an ebook, paperback or both. This is very clean, basic, professional formatting you can keep as is or change up if you want something more fancy.

Memoir

What is your story? Maybe you have a message to share with the world or maybe you just want to chronicle your life to share with your family and friends. Either way, your memoir can be a great blessing to others. I can help you turn all those memories into a beautiful story written in your own voice.

• Unlike an autobiography, which focuses on a person’s entire life, a memoir focuses on one aspect of that life. It might be your childhood, your college years or about the time you backpacked across Europe. Through email consultations I can help you find your theme and choose the memories you want to include.
• Ghostwriting: It’s still your story, but you don’t want to do any of the heavy lifting. You can tell your story to me and I will handle the rest all the way from outline to formatted manuscript. You own all rights to your book.
• Have you already written a book but need it polished? I can help you turn your rough draft into memoir gold.

Blogs and Website Content

I fell into writing blog posts almost by accident. I had some clients I had written podcast show notes for and they liked my work so much they asked me to help them with their blogs and website content. That caught on and soon I was doing that as much as the show notes, not just for them but for others as well.

• Research: I have researched everything from the best off-road trails in every state to political candidates viewpoints on the issues and much more. I then write up the results of my research in a neat, orderly fashion that is formatted to my client’s wishes along with a list of my sources.
• Ghostwriting: I have had many happy client’s I have written blog posts for. I will work very closely with you to ensure that the finished product is what you want.

Podcast Show Notes

I have been writing for as long as I can remember but it was podcast show notes that first set off my career as a freelancer. I had no way of knowing then how much it would change my life. I have had many happy, regular customers I have enjoyed working with professionally.

I will listen to your podcast while carefully taking notes and finding the “gold”. I will then take my notes and create a professionally done outline of the show, with or without time stamps. I will email these show notes to you in a word document.
