Words. Story. People.
Three small words that encapsulate the whispers in my heart for over a decade ~ the desire to pursue a career where those words beat together like drums, in perfect rhythm.
I’m delighted to formally announce that I am now providing Author Support Services for writers who long for extra time with family, or more margin to make their next novel the best it can be. A virtual assistant, if you like, to manage the distractions and to enable writers to focus on what they are called to do ~ write!
This will likely be the only time I mention this at Relz Reviewz as my blog will continue to be a labour of love for me, showcasing wonderful stories and authors, so my ‘reading readers’ won’t be bothered by such goings on! To my ‘writing readers’, all the details, along with a contact form, can be found by clicking on the SERVICES link on my navi bar.
The support I have received from readers, writers, publishers, and publicists, has been invaluable in my journey to this exciting new step in my life but I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the many years of indefatigable cheerleading and faithful encouragement of Kelli Standish, Ronie Kendig, and Tamara Leigh ~ without you, my friends, this dream would not have been possible.
Thank you,
Rel

What wonderful news! My very best wishes to you.
I think there’s a great need for more authors’ virtual assistants! Over the past months, I’ve communicated with successful authors who each gave huge credit and appreciation to their assistants. It’s such a valuable pursuit and, in my opinion, your background has prepared you in ideal ways for the role.

Thanks Becky – I’m truly excited to work with writers who need that bit more time 🙂

I’m not sure what an author’s assistant is . . . but I know that if God has called you to this, then I want to watch it happen. I know your blog and website is always so informative and well organized. I believe you have the gift of administration which means you have a God-given ability to organize and verbalize concisely and effectively. I think you will be a huge blessing to the author’s you commit yourself to. You go Rel!!! I’m praying for you!!
March 26, 2015 at 11:26 am
