Affordable, professional editing service offered in L.A

LOS ANGELES - Nov. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- Nov. 15, 2013 - LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Aspiring novelists and nonfiction authors in the Los Angeles area now can draw upon a professional editor with nearly 30 years of experience.

Inventing Reality Editing Service, owned and managed by Rob Bignell, offers proofreading, content editing and self-publishing assistance to writers. The editing service also handles dissertations, business documents, and website/blog text.

“I actually read every manuscript, line-by-line,” Bignell said. “So many other services just run manuscripts through souped-up spell checks or cut and paste boilerplate responses in their critique.”

Bignell is the author of several published fiction and nonfiction books as well as short stories. He holds a Master’s degree in English and a Bachelor’s in journalism. A long-time writing teacher, he is an award-winning publications editor and writer. More than 75 of his clients have gone on to publish their books.

“Helping authors develop and improve their stories then guiding them through the self-publishing process is exciting and highly rewarding,” Bignell said. “There are so many great book ideas out there that deserve to be placed before the public.”

Among the many books Bignell has edited from start to finish include genre novels from science fiction and literary works to westerns and historical fiction. His many nonfiction books include spiritual works, self-help guides, and memoirs.

As a published writer, Bignell understands authors’ concerns and needs. His own books include the “7 Minutes a Day…” writing guidebooks, three different hiking guidebooks, a novel, and a poetry collection.

In addition to researching and writing books, Bignell has shepherded many books and other publications through printing, distribution and marketing.

“Self-publishing and promoting a book often is a mysterious process to aspiring authors,” Bignell said. “It's actually all quite easy to do if someone mentors you through the process.”

The editing service's prices are writer-friendly, as many aspiring writers have day jobs to cover living expenses for their families or are attending college.

“Too many big companies try to gouge writers with overpriced services,” Bignell said. “All too often those services are minimal and provided by someone with virtually no experience. No one should have to pay what some companies charge just to realize a dream.”
