What Authors Love About Vendela Publishing

〰️

What Authors Love About Vendela Publishing 〰️

  • Lana has helped me to move forward with writing a book I’ve fiddled around with for 20 years. Lana is just what I needed. This wannabe author might just be one soon.

    Elaine Anwander

  • I have wanted to be a successful author for a number of years now, but lacked a road map of how to turn my writing into something publishable and marketable. Lana offers the knowledge and steps needed to turn a concept into a manuscript. I would highly recommend Lana to anyone who is ready to turn the dream of being a successful author into a reality. 

    Laura Stewart

  • Lana shares great information from her years of editing with a big publishing house—specifics for successful books that many writers wouldn’t hear about otherwise. Highly recommend.

    Ann Crawford, author of Bazoomerangs

  • Lana is exquisitely knowledgeable in all areas of novel planning, writing, producing and marketing! And she's deeply committed to her client’s success.

    Julia Stege, The Magical Marketer

  • When met Lana, I only had a draft of a novel I’d written about 20 years earlier and gave up on, and I had nothing published other than magazine articles. Today, I have 7 published novels (including the one I gave up on), all published by traditional, royalty-paying publishers.

    Elva Cobb Martin, Former president of the SC Chapter of ACFW

  • I say this without hesitation—I am a better writer thanks to Lana. She is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with. ~Gloria Galloway, author of Amber’s End
