Having trouble constructing your thoughts or putting your ideas onto paper?
Do you simply get stuck with writing words or just simply need help on the writing front? Well perhaps a Writing Consultant may be the solution to your problems! A writing consultant is a professional, editor, mentor, and sounding board for all writers at any stage of their creative process. Here at the Scribing Sage Laboratory I will work with you to influence your critical thinking skills and provide you with the foundation needed to make your writing fluid, organized, clear, concise, and cohesive.
The many reasons why an individual may need a writing consultant:
- To polish an already written project, document or manuscript
- To proofread, critique, and edit a new work
- To provide face engagement to encouragement to empower your writing vision
- To help generate ideas when on a dead-line
My Services
- Editing- simple corrections and add-ons to make the document accurate, polished and read to print or submit.
- Copy-Editing/ Ghostwriting– a vital resource in punctuation, rephrasing, sentence structures, provides continuity, flow, and including suitable information for your project. The Copy-editor will also take away other material that is not needed. (Your work must be comprehensive and be progressive). The copy editor thoroughly examines the text line by line. Maintains the sound of the writer and removes unnecessary words. In addition, when other material is added onto the document AFTER prior submission and editing of the original documents; the copy-editor assists to ensure that added material is consistent with prior submission. The Copy-editor makes sure information is factual and the document is the best it can be and that the writer raises the standard of their document.
- Coaching– providing critiques and constructive feedback of ones work, helping to connect major literary ideas with a through line, and overall providing techniques and strategies to generate ideas and navigate writer’s block
- Proofreading- usually at the LAST stage of finalizing a document to ensure that there are no needed corrections or errors that were missed
