From the first idea to the finished book, Word Worx helps new authors, business leaders and experts write, edit, design, publish and promote books people will actually want to read.
Some authors arrive with 80,000 polished words. Others arrive with a brilliant idea, twenty years of expertise and no idea where chapter one should begin. We can work with both.
We help turn the idea into a workable book concept, structure and writing plan, with professional writing support where required.

“A book can do something a business card never will. It can walk into a room before you do.”WORD WORX
Our interview-led option is designed for founders, executives, specialists and public figures who have the substance but not the spare months to write from scratch.
Structured conversations capture your stories, ideas, expertise and voice.
Your material is organised and written into a coherent book while retaining the way you actually speak and think.
You review, challenge and approve the manuscript. It is your name, your thinking and your book.
You do not need to impress us with perfect formatting. Tell us what you have, what you want the book to become and where you need help.
