What I can do for you:

♧ Critiquing

Let’s talk about your writing project in broad terms: What works, what needs work, things that you, the author, can do to make the manuscript stronger. We can brainstorm on ways to improve problem areas. If grammar isn’t your skill, I can get you started in the right direction.

♧ Content Editing

Here I supply some specific answers to the potential problems raised in critiquing. We can address elements of fiction: character, plot, setting, point of view, pacing, and tone. We can also look at such things as meeting publishing requirements for your intended genre.

♧ Proofreading

You’ve written a great story, but details give you problems. Here’s where G.C. Books can help: correcting typos, grammatical errors, punctuation problems, and all the specifics you need to give your manuscript a professional appeal before you send it to a publisher.

♧ Typesetting

You’ve decided to keep control of your idea from rough draft to the final product. Self-publishing becomes simpler and more affordable every day. Perhaps you need less than 100 copies for the relatives, but you want the finished work to be professional, beautiful, more than just okay. G.C. Books will typeset your manuscript for the printer.

♧ Galley Proofing

You’ve decided to self-publish. Your story has been critiqued, rewritten, edited, and polished. You’ve chosen your printer and worked on an appropriate cover, but you need a fresh pair of eyes to catch those final typos, inconsistent spacing, and computer glitches.

Or perhaps you are on deadline with another writing project and don't have the time to devote to the bluelines of your current work. Fresh eyes are always a benefit to the finished product.
