Query Letter – Congratulations. You’ve written a book! Now it’s time to pitch your book to an agent or publishing house. We understand that it’s hard to sell yourself. We’ll use your submitted summary (if you have one) or we’ll send you a series of questions that we’ll use as the basis for drafting a query letter that will help your manuscript get out of the slush pile and on the sales shelf. Just $299. Click the BuyIT button to order our author query letter service.
Synopsis – Many agents and editors require a book synopsis as part of your query package. We’ll write a one-page capsule of your book that will leave the reader wanting more. Perfect for agents, publishers or Amazon sales pages. Just $499. Click the BuyIT button to order our author book synopsis service.
Outline – As part of a marketing proposal, agents and publishers often need an outline that provides colleagues or sales staff information about your book and its trajectory. We’ll work from your rough outline or the full manuscript with the goal of delivering an easy-to-read chapter by chapter outline of your novel or work of non-fiction. Just $599 for up to 150,000 words. Click the BuyIT button to order our book outline service.
Reading Group Guide Discussion Questions – Whether your self publishing or going with a ‘big’ house, reading group guide and book club discussion questions are great way to initiate meaningful conversations about your book. We’ll develop a list of ten questions based on the theme, messages and moral questions raised targeted to your audience and tackling any controversial issues raised. Just $299. Click the BuyIT button to order the XpressEDIT book reading group discussion guide questions writing service.
Press Releases – Congratulations on publishing your book. It’s now time to stop typing and start promoting your book. Making the transition from writer to salesperson is hard for some authors but it’s a necessary evil. Often, the number of books you sell determines whether a publisher will print the next book in a series, a second novel, or work of non-fiction. Let us help you with a press release that establishes your platform or positions you as an expert in your field (for non-fiction book authors). For writers of memoir and fiction, we’ll help tell your personal story as a writer to build an audience for your work. Just $299. Click the BuyIT button to order the XpressEDIT book press release writing service.
After payment has been made, you will receive a questionnaire that will help us gather information necessary to complete your assignment. Be sure to use a frequently checked email address for our contact with you. Turnaround times depend upon when your project is ordered. A realistic expectation for delivery of publicity services is a one-week minimum due to the time it takes to evaluate your manuscript and interview feedback.
