Wisdom of Thoth Writing, Editing, and Publishing Services
“We are servants of the Mystery. We were put here on earth to act as agents of the Infinite, to bring into existence that which is not yet, but which will be, through us.” Steven Pressfield, The War of Art
Let me help you channel your inner Thoth and bring your wisdom into existence!
Thoth is the god of knowledge, writing, wisdom, and scribes. Ancient Egyptians claimed that he was the true author of all the past and present writings of the world. Thoth is also identified as the God of Future Knowledge, one who will offer to mankind a wisdom that will distinguish it from all other past and present beliefs.
In my experience, people who conscientiously walk the path of personal exploration often gain more than just clarity on how they perceive themselves and their place in the world. Learning to listen to the messages of their heart, they discover that there is a deeper, more universal message just waiting to be set free to encourage and inspire others. They find that they now have ideas that people need to hear!
Hearing someone else’s story can provide hope, clarity, courage, solace, comfort, and understanding. Often, the only thing that can help someone who is in the middle of great tragedy or simply tough circumstances is the account of someone else who has been through something similar and made it to the other side, wounds and all.
The focus of my Writing, Editing, and Publishing offering is on helping people find their own voice and bring their messages to the world. My unique combination of professional writing experience, intuitive abilities, and familiarity with many healing modalities enables me to help my clients craft, package, and share their messages of hope, self-empowerment, and wisdom.
Why Work With Me?
I am a self-published author of five books, all of which have been a “collaboration” with Divine Source. Each book begins as an experience or an encounter in my daily life that provides new ways of thinking, which are to be brought forth and shared with others. Once the message is received, the book essentially writes itself. Divine Source holds the wisdom. I am simply a grateful messenger. And I can show you how to be a messenger as well.
Plus, I have extensive experience working with self-help content. I know how to edit for comprehension, consistency, and logic while at the same time maintain the writer’s voice and aesthetics especially for messages that are divinely sent or inspired.
As an added bonus to you, I have 35 years of professional experience in creating, reviewing, and editing a dazzling array of content types: government proposals, technical white papers, website articles, legal and financial documents, blog posts, interview transcripts, marketing emails, brochures, resumes, product descriptions, user manuals, training materials, and much more!
In all cases, I will make sure that your content is understandable, flows well, is consistent, and free of grammatical, spelling, or other errors. Most importantly, I will ensure that your message is clear and relevant to your chosen audience, and your own ideas and thoughts are accurately represented and in your own unique voice!
My Services
When You Just Need the Basics:
Proofreading: Perfect for those of you who have content ready to be published. I will make sure there are no typos, spelling, or grammar errors, so that you can share, publish, and print your information with confidence.
Line Editing: This service includes proofreading, plus I will make sure that your information is presented as professionally as possible. I will check your information for logic, word choice, and organization, and I will make suggestions for improvement.
When You Need A Bit More:
Comprehensive Editing: Also called developmental or substantive editing, this type of editorial process specifically fixes the document at a content or structural level: paragraphs, pages, flow, organization, format, style issues, and adding and deleting material. In addition to making all necessary proofreading and line editing corrections, I will suggest where the material might need to be rewritten or removed, always keeping in mind that this is YOUR message to be conveyed as you think fit. I will provide a summary of all suggestions and rewrites in order to clarify what in my opinion needs to be done to improve the content and ensure your message is being heard correctly.
Publishing: This service is for those of you who need assistance packaging and subsequently publishing your content. This type of edit focuses exclusively on the output of your content – graphics, fonts, margins, format, etc. I have knowledge of several self-publishing venues, including Amazon, Smashwords, and Draft2Digital, and am familiar with the stylistic and other requirements that must be adhered to. I will guide you through the process so that you’ll have knowledge going forward of how to maintain, update, or remove your content yourself.
Nuts and Lightning Bolts
We begin with a free consultation in which we discuss your message; your goals for crafting and delivering your message; your experience with writing, editing, and publishing; and the types of content (book, article, newsletter, blog, web content, podcast announcement, etc.) you intend to use to format your message. Then, we’ll talk about how I can help you move forward, which can run the gamut from proofreading to showing you how easy it is to self-publish your finished manuscript.
