Above, “Get The Right BOOK EDITING” says Book Launchers (booklaunchers.com) – right there, they are right! But they are showing only “The Right” and not “The Best” book editing! American book authors and editors are not always right!
Above,
why does Book Launchers only show the typewriter for typing and the ballpen for
editing, but not the personal computer (PC)?
I
am telling you: I am a teacher (UP Los Baños BSA major in Ag Edu, 1965), and I taught
myself digital writing, editing and desktop publishing (DTP).
And
I have the digital experience, having been The
Editor In Chief of at least 20 books and an ISI-attaining Philippine Journal of Crop Science (PJCS) published
by the Crop Science Society of the Philippines
based at the UPLB campus in Laguna. So I know what I am talking about: “Experience
is the best teacher,” as according to Julius
Caesar. Roman military genius. As the one-man band Editor In Chief, desktop
publishing with my PC, I made the PJCS up-to-date in 3 years (2003-2006) – and included
in the international prestige list called “ISI” the next year (2007). Of course,
the ISI requires high-standard editing.
So,
I say: “Get The Right Digital Editing” for your book or journals! And if
you get Frank A Hilario, I promise
you the best!
(“Books & PC” from medium.com)
I will edit your beloved book using my experience of 48
years – (a) my editing typewritten pages from 1975 to 1985 – newsletters,
journals, and magazines; and (b) my editing digital pages (from 1991 up to now)
– books, magazines, journals.
Filmmaker Pamela Yates says, “The digital
revolution has had a democratizing effect. Now anyone can be a filmmaker, but
to be a good filmmaker is as hard as it ever was” (azquotes.com). Likewise, I say, “Now
anyone can be a digital editor, but to be a good digital editor is as hard as
it can be!”
I can do the desktop publishing (DTP) work for your book, up
to the portable document format
(pdf), which is the digital file that goes into the actual print. The pdf copy
has all the necessary elements, from cover to cover, exactly as you would like
them (and/or approve of them) to appear in the printed book for distribution.
Best to have that digitally prepared pdf first before
going to the printer – so that at your convenience and right in your respective
rooms, you and the Editor can produce an outstanding intellectual product.
More.
Whether your book is about (alphabetically arranged) – agriculture, economics,
management, science, technology – it probably needs an index to help the
readers look for data and/or information.
You
may think you are already very good in the English language and have had years
of experience and do not need any editor at all – you are probably mistaken!
Also:
A good Introduction will help sell
your book – I can write that one. And an extensive index, I can prepare that
too.
Frank
A Hilario will show you best: “Go digital!”@517
