Writer’s Little Book Club and Words For You

WRITER’S LITTLE BOOK CLUB AND WORDS FOR YOU

I’ve been asked a couple of times this week about the connection between Words For You and Writer’s Little Book Club.  So this blog – a bit longer than my usual length – is written to explain what I’m doing.

If you’ve been on this blog or on the www.words-for-you.co.uk website you’ll know that this is the website for my writing business.  For the last six years I’ve been carrying out editing, writing and proof-reading work for clients who run their own businesses or in the voluntary sector.

I’ve had a ball doing it and I’ve written for brochures, websites, sales letters, reports, exhibition stands, leaflets and all manner of print.

Last year my work took a different turn because over the year I had 4 separated clients who were involved in writing books.  I got involved in ghost-writing, editing, mentoring writers and proof-reading and market research for one author.

As you can imagine I became totally immersed in the whole process of creating a book from inspiration to promotion.  Which led to a workshop for would be writers and then on to the book, The Writer’s Little Book…with Big Ideas.

My web strategist and book designer (with a background in book retailing for Waterstone’s) created the website, www.writerslittlebook.co.uk at first principally as an avenue to sell the book.  But people kept asking for help so I decided that we’d set up a club that will provide training, support and encouragement for other writers.  Which is what we’ve done.

You can join the club at www.writerslittlebook.co.uk/bookclub.html - it’s free and you’ll learn about all the activities we intend through the Club.

For me it’s obviously very exciting.  The reaction to the book has been supportive and you can buy that on the site of course.  I intend to carry on working for my existing clients but this year I want to concentrate more on would be writers and their needs.

So if you’re a writer and you need:

Mentoring, training, ghost-writing, editing or proofreading

contact me either at eileen@words-for-you.co.uk or eileen@writerslittlebook.co.uk

I’m expecting an exciting year ahead.  I hope it includes you.
