How We Got Started

Happy 11th Birthday, WriteWords Press!
WriteWords Press is a small, independent grassroots literary publisher in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. WriteWords press is dedicated to giving a publishing platform to a few self-determined voices. Including services for printing, marketing and networking, WriteWords Press is the independent author’s dream realized. Self-empowerment through literary art! http://writewordspress.com

I began as an instructional and technical writer with business clients over the entire Bay Area while writing my own fiction "on the side". After several successful decades, I decided to open my own small press when I became confident enough to engage in publishing my own creative work. See http://writewordspress.com/about/

Dear Robin, I used it all in WriteWords Press, my editing and writing business, but don't trust the value of doing it. Clutter, for sure. Noise, absolutely. Plus it takes a long time! I think phone calls work better than social media; and you need a website for authority and reference. Email as...

I think phone calls work better than social media; and you need a website for authority and reference. Email as correspondence is dying in my opinion because it's been co-opted by advertising brands. Facebook is good for events and spreading the word. Twitter too.

Words are powerful. The right words make all the difference. Accuracy and correct format tell the reader something important about your business. Write your words and hire an editor to make them shine. (more) Words are powerful. The right words make all the difference.
