Your Book

LET'S GET YOUR BOOK OUT THERE

So you have a book, either in your head, on a hard drive, or *gasp* on paper. I can help you get your book out to the world. With my decades of editing and self-publishing experience, I know how to organize, improve, and publish the story or information you must share!

GHOSTWRITING

People have been telling you for a while now that 'you should really write a book', but you know you don't have the ability to put the words in your head between the covers of a book. Not by yourself, anyway. I can go from notes you share with me, to full-on interviews where I transcribe your every word. Then I organize it, design a cover, and have it on amazon for the world to read.

FEE:

Ghostwriting: $5/page

If you've already started or finished your work, whether it's a blog post, an article, essay or book, I have the tools and experience to edit it to your voice for only spelling and grammar, up to style and flow.

Essay/Article: $20 (up to 2000 words)

Book: $2/page (up to 500 words/page)

"As a published author, I look for qualified editors to refine my work. Sakina bint Erik has been a key member of my team of editors. She has helped with The Clear Quran for Kids and The Clear Quran Dictionary. We have benefited tremendously from her experience, knowledge, and insight. I always recommend her to other authors and organizations, being confident that she will do a great job." - Dr. Mustafa Khattab

"First, a big thank you to Sakina Bint Erik!

Trying to get any work completed can be difficult in itself, not to mention how frustrating and draining it can be with the wrong person. And on top of it all, self-publishing comes with its own set of challenges.

I was so pleased that a friend of mine suggested that I contacted Sakina Bint Erik when I asked her if she knew someone that could help me get my book on Amazon. She was patient with me and allowed me to explain exactly what I needed to be done (the way I wanted it) instead of just doing it. She made lots of great suggestions for what I could do to enhance my book. I strongly suggest using her for any copyright, editing, or publishing work you need to do."
