Writers Resource pages

Getting the Writing Right:

Writers Guide Pages offer practical help to writers: whether you are a beginning author setting out on the lonely journey of producing your first book, or an accomplished writer, perhaps embarking on a new kind of writing. Or perhaps you are not a writer as such, but you need to write something very important in order to get your message across. As writers ourselves, we at Context-uk know the pitfalls and difficulties that writers face.

Our writers resources reflect our mission to help writers produce the best writing that is possible for them, and to get that writing appropriately published. We will update these pages periodically, and they will always include material that our clients tell us they are most in need of. You will find practical help on how to produce a synopsis, guidelines on punctuation, advice on how to get into print. There is also a resource list of publications and organizations and some useful links to other web sites offering writer resources.

At Context-uk, we believe in working co-operatively with our clients, helping you initially to write that book or document that means so much to you, and also offering the full range of editorial services to tighten and polish up the material you produce.

Our writers resource pages include the following free help and advice.:

• What it takes to write a successful book
• Planning your book
• Writing a synopsis
• Getting the writing right
• Getting into print
• It doesn’t stop there . . .
• Endnote – inc. checklist of do’s and don’ts
• Resource list and links

We aim to give you practical help, based on our continuing experience with our authors and on what they say they most need.

Testimonial:

You're fantastic! Many, many thanks for getting this to me so quickly, and even more for sending along an explanation of the changes you've made. In my hundred or so years of dealing with US publishers, not one has come close to that kind of "joint venture" approach.

The last page just emerged from the printer, and I can't wait to read it line by line. By the looks of your notes, I'll be surprised if there are any changes that don't improve the text. I've always contended that any writer -- even the best of them -- needs a good editor, and it is quite a bonus to have found one for this particular book. Many thanks for all your hard work and obvious in-depth attention.

Endnote...

Please contact me now if you have been inspired by our web site, and if you want to know more about our services

In particular I will be delighted to talk to you about your own specific project, and what we can do to help you complete it.

My clients tell me that I have an uncanny ability to "get into their skins", to intuitively understand what they haven't said on the written page and to re-write or polish their copy from the perspective of their own minds and hearts. That is because I have worked in communications for many years. Words are my passion in life, my art.

I am delighted to offer a personal, tailor made service to help a client express what they are passionate about; to bring their messages out into the world. To be able to do so is a privilege.
