If you are a self-publishing author writing nonfiction, self-help, and children’s literature, you have the option to work with our referral partner Bannon River Books, LLC. They are a consulting firm and will coach you through your self-publishing journey.
As you peruse our website, you will come across many helpful resources and suggestions designed to ease and sharpen your writing. You’re welcome to download the example below of a complementary Personal Style Guide we offered one of our clients (note: personal information on the client has been edited out). Our clients love these guides and use them over and over again! This general format can be added to and built upon as your writing goals shift. We hope you find it helpful. This popular post on our blog shares more information on style guides, along with an additional downloadable resource. It explains how style guides help you elevate your writing practice and streamline your work.
