Who writes books? People who want to change the world for
the better; people who want to prove something to themselves; and people who
want to leave behind a legacy. And on occasion, people publish to make money -
such as professional speakers.
Submitting to a Publishing House?
Words & Deeds helps authors get their books ready to
show an agent or publisher. We serve as a "second pair of eyes." As
author Karen Rowinsky said, "Thanks so much for your words and support.
My book is much better for them both."
Children's author Lois Forsberg said,
"I had submitted many of my stories for
publication before contacting Connie. Although, I hadn't sold a story, I knew
from the personal notes that I received from editors, my work showed promise.
I contacted Connie when I realized I was just too close to my stories to see
how to improve them.
Connie quickly pointed out solutions to problem areas
I had worked and reworked many times. Her suggestion to increase my use of
active verbs and reduce or eliminated passive verbs was invaluable. I can now
resubmit with renewed confidence."
