Publishing your book
From the very start of your writing journey, from the development and editing of your manuscript through to querying agents or developing a social media marketing strategy, we can help guide you along the way. The authors we work with, wherever they are in the world, stay in full financial and creative control and enjoy the highest standards of professional customer service. We look forward to hearing from you!

Why choose Softwood?
The best writing and publishing experience:
How we start
We offer free 1000-word sample edits to all of our clients to ensure we're a good match. You can then choose any or all of our services to continue your journey to publishing.
How we continue
You won't be waiting for our emails and you certainly won't be waiting for us to answer the phone. We also offer Zoom calls for a face-to-face opportunity to chat through your projects.
How we end
We don't take any of your book's profits.
You have been in full financial and creative control for the whole journey. We've even designed a bespoke payment plan to fit your situation and currency.
Check out our testimonials to see why our clients return to us.
Our critique service
Are you looking for good, honest, professional feedback on your manuscript? Our critiques will help you make informed decisions about which step to take next.
These are particularly useful for writers who haven't finished their manuscripts and are looking for regular feedback.
