Time-To-Read offers the following range of services:
In every organization, whether academic, industrial, or private concerns, any material promoting the work performed by the organization will need editing or proofreading before it can be read by clients or the public at large.
Before setting yourself up for an endless series of 'rejections' from publishers and agents alike, it would be a good idea to have your manuscript edited. Manuscript editing consists of (but is not limited to) correcting errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar - using either US, British, Australian or Canadian grammars. We will also check for consistency, proper word usage, presentation, sentence structure and construction, and evaluation of text flow. Ultimately, we will re-write sentences and/or paragraphs, if and when required, thus improving the interest level of the book.
If you have notes, a diary, a story to tell, we will write it for you...but we will work together in order for me to write the story - the way you want it written. This is a long process, but in the end, your story will be told.
Should you have a manuscript written in either French, or English and would like to have it published in English (or in French), we will provide you with a completely translated and edited version of your Work.
If your manuscript is to be self-published or published by a 'Print-on-Demand' house, then perhaps you will need to have your cover pre-designed according to your suggestions and ideas.
Once you are ready to publish your book, we will layout your manuscript one final time, and we will do the formatting as well as insert all of the illustrations you may wish to include in it.
Website text editing consists of (but is not limited to) correcting errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar - using either US, British, Australian or Canadian grammars. Ultimately, together with the website designer, we will revise your website until we attain an "effective website" that will attract your clients and sell your products.
The same as any text, a website text needs to have a perfect, and again, effective layout. Together with the designer, we will enhance the layout to produce the desired effect on each page treated.
