Why do you need a book angle more than you need your daily tea or coffee?

You need a new book angle that makes your book stand out – because every year there are 2 million books self-published, globally! That’s not including Random House or the other big publishers.

Writing a helpful book means having a clear message and align to the audience you want to reach. Ensuring the right angle also ensures the right client or sponsorship attraction.

Experienced in planning, writing, and editing of non-fiction books, Jennifer’s services can guide your business or passion-project book. These book publishing support services take an author-first approach.

There are generally three kinds of people we help:

  1. A leader or retired CEO who is writing their life story/business lessons – with story writing support.
  2. A novice writer who is writing a self-development or similar book – with book development support.
  3. A specialist who is writing a how-to book on their topic – support with editing.

Bring Your Book to Life — with an Expert Co-Writer ⭐

Have a powerful idea for a book but don’t know where to start? Or maybe you’ve started writing but feel overwhelmed by the process? Our Co-Writing Service is designed to turn your expertise, stories, and ideas into a professionally crafted, publication-ready book.

Unlike traditional ghostwriting, we partner with you every step of the way—coaxing your unique insights through personalised interviews, shaping them into compelling book content, and ensuring your voice shines through.

Why Choose Our Co-Writing Service?

A Collaborative Writing Experience

Too busy to expand or finesse your book? Then partner with an experienced co-writer who works with you to develop your manuscript. From brainstorming to the final draft, you remain deeply involved in shaping your book, ensuring it’s authentically yours. There is no use of chatbot tools in the writing, to ensure we capture your true voice. The way you speak is close-ish to the way you write. 

Custom-Tailored Support

Whether you need help organising your thoughts, refining your message, or polishing prose, we handle the word finessing while guiding you through the process. Together, we’ll create a 40,000-word book that reflects your expertise, voice, and vision.

Moving Your Book Along Towards Launch

Your book is just the beginning. Once we’ve crafted a compelling, publication-ready manuscript, you’ll have the choice of two tailored next steps:

Outline and Chapter Development to keep your book structured and focused.
Collaborative Writing where we draft using case stories, research, your life’s relevant stories, and we revise the content after feedback.

Your book. Your voice. Our expertise.

Editing Support Services

Our Line editing service is a thorough line-by-line edit of a book’s language. We edit for flow, not just for good grammar, and include comments on why major changes are suggested. That’s why it costs a little more.

Cost quoted on viewing of your outline and chapter sample. A sample edit is often available for long works, so you can see the type of editing we perform. (We match iPed member rates).

The first step if your book has many disparate parts, a Developmental editing review involves looking at your manuscript, asking your objectives, and making comments to see if we can get that book to align with your ideal audience’s interests. There will be a report, a personal advisory session, and if you’re willing, those red lines with our on-manuscript suggestions!

Really knowing your target audience and where you can sell the book will help guide your next decisions.

Some Client Reviews

 “Thanks for the manuscript, the Bibliography looks great, you have done a magnificent job.  In terms of time you spent on the drafts, it was in my opinion, value for money.  I can’t think how you could have achieved a better result.  You were willing to take on work from someone with an appalling grasp of the fundamentals of English grammar, someone who frequently strayed from the subject at hand, someone who didn’t understand the publishing process, basically someone who needed a lot of guidance.  You did all that and more in good humour and spirits, thank you, it has been an honour to work with you.”

Tony Hughes

 “I took time selecting the best editor for my book, Joyful Eating. Jennifer’s editing style stood out from other example edits I received. She really understood who the book was for and her editing style reflected this. Jennifer made edits that not only ensured my work was grammatically correct; she edited in a way that ensured that the book was engaging while maintaining my voice throughout.

The process of editing was seamless, and I am delighted with the final draft and feel my book is far more readable. I would not hesitate to engage her services for any future writing projects. Thanks, Jennifer!”

Tansy Boggon

 “We highly recommend the services of Jennifer Lancaster of Power of Words. She offers value for money and excellent design and technical support. We needed a fairly technical environment policy manuscript finessed into contents-and-cover files suitable for upload to print-on-demand. Through the many iterations of this task, we found Jennifer to be highly responsive and professional.With Jennifer as our colleague, we got a great design at a reasonable price, assistance was on hand for the upload, and we were pleased with the crisp appearance of the resulting print title. Thank you, Jennifer.”
