So, You Want To Write A Book...

Image
  I often hear, “I want to write a book. What do I do next?”  Writing doesn’t come easy to some people, though they have the idea in their heads. And that’s ok!  Is it easy to write a book? Not necessarily, though  for some, it is . But writing a book doesn’t mean you type everything out and it’s all done and it’s going to magically appear on bookshelves everywhere. Writing is a process, with many drafts and  definitely editing  and proofreading. Don’t even get me started on the publishing process, which is a whole different blog post!

Welcome To Our Blog!

  Welcome to our blog! The purpose of this blog will be to talk about writing, editing, and publishing. We’ll give you writing tips, talk about proper editing and proofreading, and all about publishing—traditional and self-publishing. We may even talk on occasion about a book we’ve read, and we will definitely talk about books our clients have written and published. First, let me introduce Get It Write Publishing Company . We are a company that offers editing services and publishing services. Editing for those who only need book editing but don’t want to use our publishing services. We offer three publishing packages to choose from, each with a one-time flat fee to cover the costs associated with getting your book published. Our company does not take royalties, so our clients set up their own accounts on KDP and IngramSpark, but we do the work and they’re published under our name, so they aren’t “self-published” authors. We also have marketing services included in our packages. Get I
