Welcome
clients. In one way or another, everything we do is in service to helping people string words together, to tell a story
as effectively as they can.
We offer a wide array of services to the publishing industry, helping writers and publishers find each other,
particularly in (but by no means limited to) the Christian market:
Literary representation -- In recent years our business has become increasingly competitive, and harder to
penetrate. This is especially true in the exotic age of electronic self-publishing, where book buyers (the only real
decision-makers) have so many choices. Or if you're seeking a "regular" publisher, few of them will accept a
manuscript directly from an unknown writer these days; instead, they rely on literary agents to separate wheat from
chaff and send them only the best work that has been thoroughly vetted. And that's exactly what we do: Help you
make a good first impression, to our extensive network of publishers.
Writers' Conference -- If you have found it difficult to get noticed in this crowded field, you're not alone. One
largely unappreciated approach is that you can meet editors and agents face-to-face at a writers' conference. On
behalf of a small Bible school outside Los Angeles, we manage one of their most important ministries, an annual
conference for Christian writers.
Manuscript editing -- You might have a wonderful story to tell,
but that isn't always enough. Another part of the formula for success
in publishing, is to submit a well-groomed manuscript. Let us help
you put your best foot forward with our editing services. Even the
most experienced writers, blessed with compelling stories and
impeccable grammar, can benefit from a second pair of eyes.

Separation of services. The editing side of our business is separate from the literary agency. This firewall is
necessary because, under the generally accepted canons of the business, an ethical agent must not charge fees to
his/her clients. We make money only when you do. For this reason, if you hire us to edit your manuscript, we
cannot consider your work for representation until at least one year after the completion of your most recent project.
From the earliest days of human civilization, our ancestors recognized an important
need, and they set out to find a way. They needed to communicate. Their first
"language" might have been a primitive system of gestures and grunts, but in time they
figured out how to give names to the things around them. They spoke, they wrote, they
left behind records of their history. All of these advances became possible through the
invention of a device that we now know as "words."
Here at WordWise Media Services, words are our business. We're a tight-knit group
clients. In one way or another, everything we do is in service to helping people string words together, to tell a story
as effectively as they can.
