Discover how we can assist you.
After completing their first draft, first-time writers often feel uncertain about the next steps to take to get their story published.
If you’re a first-time writer, we offer personalised support to answer your questions, address your doubts, and ease your concerns. First, we request to review your manuscript for an initial evaluation to better understand how we can help you. Following this, we provide a complementary 30-minute phone call with Elizabeth Cortis, our founder and lead book editor, to discuss your self-publishing goals and how best to achieve them. Elizabeth will give you honest and helpful initial feedback, answer your queries, and explain how Bookmark Editors can support you on your publishing journey.
