words ... along the path
BUSINESS SERVICES
Writing: Can't find the words? I can take your ideas or rough draft, and prepare a letter, article, report or press release that says exactly what you want it to say.
Proofreading/Editing: Don't let spelling, grammatical or syntax errors detract from your professional appearance. I will ensure that your documents are correct, coherent and consistent, before you send them out.
Word Processing/Desktop Publishing: When all the elements are prepared, I will help you pull them all together. Products include newsletters, flyers, annual reports and manuals, as well as in-depth books and directories.
