Article and book editing services for self-publishing writers
You've labored over your baby, that article or book that you want to see published. Perhaps you have an editor who is waiting to accept your work. Most aspiring authors don't. Yet they refuse to surrender the dream. Many of these dreamers have bypassed the gatekeeper of traditional publishing houses and turned to self-publishing.
The public at large associates self-publishing with an inferior reputation, mainly due to authors who produce poor quality work. That poor quality derives in part from content but much more so from presentation. They published drafts so riddled with grammatical errors, punctuation errors, and weak structures in both sentences and content that readers quickly shy away from reading. Even if they do finish reading, they leave with a mental connection associating the author with a less-than-professional image.
Don't undercut your success by cutting corners! If you want to write professionally, then act like a professional writer and secure an editor. Editorial services are not just for those who lack the skill or time. Just as lawyers who represent themselves in court have a fool for a client, writers who think they can edit or proofread their own work are only fooling themselves. They simply cannot assess it objectively. They are too close to their work to see everything that needs to be seen.
Hiring a professional service like words by kurt better ensures a more detached and objective proofread and edit of your document. And that means your published draft --- the one the public sees --- better communicates the professional image you want them to associate with you and your brand.
Serious writers treat their work and their brand seriously by securing an editor.

Copy Editing Services
For a flat rate, you can have any document professionally proofread. These services include the following:
Why would you pay money to do what your word processor already does? Well, you wouldn't, but would your computerized spell checker be able to detect the errors in the following sentence? Eye came two sea ewe, butt ewe were knot inn win eye came buy.
Contrary to popular myth, computers don't catch everything. Until they do, you need a professional set of human eyes to proofread your document, especially if anyone outside your business or organization will see it. Simple errors can send an image of sloppiness which will brand you and your business or organization.
