Local Hawaii Help for Writers
This section is intended to provide help and writing-related resources for Hawaii Writers Guild (HWG) members who reside in Hawaii and, more specifically, on the Big Island. As we increase our membership and become more familiar with our members, their capabilities, and their willingness to help others, we will cite their availability and the areas of expertise they are willing to share. Some examples might include manuscript proofreading, editing, formatting, e-book publishing, graphic design, authoring software usage, and the like. Such personal help services may be fee-based or free, subject to individual negotiation between members, with HWG acting only as a referring agent with no responsibility or liability as to quality or quantity of help rendered.
While we believe services which may be offered for a fee in this listing are done so in good faith. A listing of any individual offering writing-related services on the Hawaii Writers Guild website does not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or representation that the Guild has vetted any listers. Readers are encouraged to investigate on their own to verify terms of services offered for sale, and to use their own judgment in making any purchases. By all means, if you have any adverse experiences with anyone listing services available, please report your experience to [email protected].
Other resources may be business-related, such as commercial printing, copying or binding services.
