Making Money as a Writer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Everything is just words.

But the words are everything.

It is an amazing thing when a person writes. You sit down and watch as the letters pour out of your fingertips to the keyboard and onto the screen. You find yourself watching for the first time as what you are trying to say forms before you. And although the words have been written and rewritten in your head dozens of times before now, you look at what you wrote with the same initial curiosity a reader would. You watch as words intertwine and mesh and render for the first time. Something remarkable happens as what you are trying to convey readies itself to be shared thought.

 

I know what you are doing right now is hard. You have written something that is important and special to you and you want to make it as good as it can be without spending a fortune. Maybe it is all still in your head and you need a little help getting it all down into words. Perhaps you also feel uncomfortable dealing with a stranger that might be thousands of miles away. I understand your concerns and offer a free dialogue to help you find out more about me as I find out more about you.

I don't need to know your phone number or address or anything except what your project is all about. Please feel free to drop me an e-mail and we can visit with each other a little with no obligation and no concerns of being bothered by salesmen or constant E-mails trying to get you to sign up for services. Unlike some writing services, I can actually supply you with e-mail addresses of past clients who can vouch for my honesty, fair pricing and genuine interest in my clients.

 

You have a story to tell. I can help.

Is it time for you to take that next step and make that book of yours as good as it can possibly be?  Now the only problem is deciding who to hire to help you obtain that goal. This is an important decision so I hope you will take a few minutes and travel my site to determine if I might be the one you have been looking for.

I specialize in the fields of; memoirs, true life stories, humor and historical documentation that includes business histories as well as documenting the legacies of towns, churches, civic organizations and charitable institutions.  

Until recently, I wrote weekly newspaper columns for The Courier, a Gatehouse Media paper and I host a Friday morning radio show on 96.3 F.M. in Atlanta Illinois. I also write for various magazines and have over 250,000 verified reads of my work via the web in the last year. Please feel free to Google or MSN me or use any search engine you are comfortable using to see that I have a strong presence in the writing community. Currently I have a humor column updated twice a week at www.searchwarp.com and also write serious commentary twice a week for www.problogs.com. I also write community based special interest features for www.lincolndailynews.com.

I know it isn't easy. It's a tough decision deciding what stranger is the right one to entrust something as important as your personal book with.

Perhaps you have been checking out writing service sites for a long time...but you never have taken that plunge to talk to a person you have never met about that idea stuck in your head or already down (sort of) in a computer file.

The FAQ page answers many common questions and I recommend you visit it to understand what assistance I can be to you. As I am not always in the ad section of search engines, you might want to bookmark this site so you don't lose it while you are thinking about contacting me.

I promise I understand what you are going through and I am happy to chat with you a little bit to see if the two of us are compatible. I don't mind answering questions and will be happy to give you any advice I can without charging you a dime. Please amble through my site. Check out who I am and how I write. Look at my up front pricing and information about book writing assistance and then drop me a note. I know what you are going through because I have been there myself.

I don't mind answering questions and I am happy to converse via E-mail as much as you want to help you determine if you feel comfortable with me. Let's talk. It's free.

Thanks. I look forward to hearing from you.

 Mike Fak.

You will notice there are no ads on this website. I think too much of you to have all kinds of "get rich quick" or "have your book on the market tomorrow" click to go advertisements. This website was, is, and always will be just the two of us trying to get that project of yours out of your head and printed for the world to see.

From hilarious stories about being invaded by raccoons to another war with his computer, Mike's latest book is filled with laughs. The tales about false teeth, looking for ancestors or talking about old pets are the kinds of short stories that has made Mike's work a staple on the award winning Opinion pages of The Courier.

 

No book by Mike could be complete without a little ranting and raving about everything and everyone, and the chapter on; "Things that Drive me Nuts." is vintage Mike and shouldn't be missed.

 

Poignant stories concerning Mike's feelings about his parent's deaths, recalling his childhood in Wrigleyville and the diary he and his wife kept when their son came into this world as a two-pound premie will make a reader understand that the joy and sadness in portions of Mike's life mirror your own.
