Tomework

Tuesday, March 13, 2012 No comments


Starting a business is in many ways like starting a book. You sink hundreds of hours into it before it even goes live or is published. I started Tomework back in November of 2011 due to the amount of freelance work I had been receiving. It’s been really tough getting my name out there. I know I have some steady readers here at Editing Tomework and am hoping that you could help me out.

                I proofread and edit manuscripts (any genre), business websites, and business copy. I also do business writing (such as newsletters, marketing pieces, and website copy). If you know anyone that might be able to use these services, send them a friendly email saying, “Hey, I know this editor/writer. Not sure if you need that kind of thing but if you do, he’s a good one;” and hey, if you need any of these services yourself, feel free to take me up on my first timer’s discounts.
                I’m working on ramping up clientele this upcoming month because Nikki is leaving her job to have our baby Cove, and she doesn’t plan on returning to her post. We’re both going to be freelancing and working on our businesses—me on Tomework and her on her design business.

                I’m really easy to work with, so if you or anyone you know needs some editing or writing done, just shoot me an email at paulwroteyoder@gmail.com or visit my business site so see my prices for proofreading and editing. I take the business writing requests directly through email.

Wanderlust’s Writing Den

Friday, March 9, 2012 No comments


Three weeks ago I started up a writer’s blog. I wanted to chart my own progression with writing and editing as well as provide other writers, editors, and readers with advice on writing and editing, and to provide some entertaining stories every now and then. To sum it up, it’s an outlet for things I’ve learned and created.

You can find out more about me by checking in on my posts there. I am currently posting every weekday, usually posting around noon time—depends on the day though.

I’ll leave you with a Q&A that might answer some of your questions about Wanderlust’s Writing Den.

Q. What is this blog about, and what do you hope to accomplish with it?

A. I started this blog for both writers and readers.
I plan on having a running conversation with writers on writing/editing techniques and strategies, to get a better take on different people’s perspective on what good writing is, and to share my own successful writing strategies to help other writers learn how to improve their craft. 

I want show my work to readers and take part in discussions with them on books I’m working on getting published. I think it would be awesome if my favorite authors had the time to do this with their fan base.

That’s what this blog is about, helping writers become better writers by posting my slant on subjects, and providing readers with ongoing stories that I’m currently writing. Essentially, you get to read some of my books before they’re even published.

I hope to bring some hope and enjoyment to both writers and readers every day through my daily posts.

Q. How often do you post?

A. I plan on posting every week day. Why? Because the sites and blogs that I’m into, I usually check out daily. If they go a few days without posting anything new, I tend to leave them in the dust. Cold I know, but my attention span is short when it comes to online content. I’m going to try my best to keep my readership tuned in on a daily basis.

Q. Do you have a schedule of what topics you are going to be posting on?

A. Here’s my planned schedule. This schedule could change, but currently I plan to post…

  • Twice a week on improving your writing skills
  • Twice a week on grammar topics
  • Once a week on editing, publishing, or an update on my own publishing
  • Once a week on an ongoing story that I’ll be writing just for this blog
  • Once a week on either an update on Tomework (my editing company) or a streaming from a YouTube video if I produce any audio or video material

Hopefully that answers any questions you might have for me before jumping into my blog. If it doesn’t, feel free to ask me anything in the comments below.
