Striving for your success...About Helping You Get Published
I started Helping You Get Published because I saw a need. To achieve success in today's competitive book trade, emerging authors require expert editing—and more. To attract a publisher or agent, or to be self-published successfully, authors must also understand how the market works and what agents, publishers, and readers want in a book.
My commitment is to do whatever I can to develop your writing and publication potential, by providing both high-quality, professional editing and the market knowledge that all authors must consider when entering the book trade. Helping You Get Published Freelance Book Editing Services and free Writing and Publishing Resources bring you my experience as a book editor and author to help you write more effectively and get published in the way that best serves you.

About my clients
Though I am based in the area of Vancouver, Canada, not all my clients are local. Many reside across Canada and throughout the US. I have also had clients from Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Africa, India, and the Orient.
Approximately half the authors who come to me have been previously published. Whether published or not, most clients are first-time book authors. By the time they approach me, some have a completed book-length first draft; others are seeking early direction for work-in-progress. I am happy to assist both published and unpublished authors in a range of genres at any, and every, stage of the challenging endeavor of writing and publishing a book.

Offering manuscript assessment, editing, proofreading, book proposal preparation, and query letter writing—as well as book market research and more—I do my utmost to help you achieve your writing and publication goals.
