Words matter.
Make them count
Writing Services Inquiry
We may have begun offloading our writing to algorithms, but the ancients understood the power of a well-turned phrase. The word Grimoire (book of magic), for instance, comes from the Old French word grammaire, which is where we get the word grammar. So, too, has English lifted "spell" from the Germanic "spel," which means "storytelling.” And a good story? That’s Gospel.
Words are magic. Literally. They can touch you. Grip you. Move you. Change you. Words have the power to make things happen. That’s why Dr. Turner’s approach to writing takes this power seriously, whether you’re writing a novel, a tweet, a scholarly article, a cover letter, technical documentation, or a policy brief. Regardless of the type of writing you’re tackling, we can help you at any point in the process. Sample services include:
Topic identification
Brainstorming and storyboarding
Writing
Editing & proofreading
Sensitivity reading
Beta reading
Fact checking
Indexing
Ready to work a little magic? Send an inquiry describing what you’d like help with, page counts, where you are in the process, and a preferred timeline and budget. If the project seems feasible and our availabilities align, we’ll follow up. In the event that the job is very small, we’ll follow up with a proposal email. For more complex projects or those that require preparation, we’ll schedule a one hour in-person or online consultation. If everyone agrees to move forward, Dr. Turner will send you a proposal. On acceptance of the proposal, we will finalize a contract so that work can proceed.
Rates are industry standard but differ depending on the type of work requested. Please indicate if you are a student or otherwise experiencing financial hardship.
