Girl Friday Productions
“I am so happy to be working through your edits. If I only had an editor like you, in my own language!”—Award-winning Icelandic author Hallgrimur Helgason

Here at Girl Friday, we live up to our name, working with a diverse list of clients on an incredible array of projects that continues to challenge and surprise us. Our roots are in book publishing and we love helping authors and publishers bring books to life, but over the years we have used those same talents to help clients working in government, education, restaurants, and software development.

Writing

The six principals of Girl Friday are published writers experienced in book-length fiction, nonfiction, marketing copy, proposals, blogs, press releases and case studies, as well as educational material for children and teens.

Editing

Former in-house and acquisitions editors, we are at ease working within a wide range of genres, from sci-fi fantasy to romance to politics to alternative health. We’re always ready with an honest opinion, and can provide extensive, targeted feedback on your draft memoir, novel, or non-fiction labor of love.

Collaboration

Are you at the top of your field but not in the craft of writing? Whatever your area of expertise—be it medicine, business, cooking, or even your own life history—we are skilled and intuitive collaborators and ghostwriters who will find the perfect hook then bring your idea to life.

Publicity

Whether you want to amp up your publisher’s publicity efforts or you’re taking the self-publishing leap, we’ll give your book the push it needs using social and online media strategies as well as pitching national and local print, radio, and television.

Branding / Social Media

These days, whether you’re an author or an entrepreneur, having a distinct and appealing social media presence is a must. Let us help you navigate the ever-changing world of social media and put together a comprehensive strategy for your book or brand. GFP excels at ghosting and managing blog, Facebook and Twitter accounts so that you can maintain a social media platform without ever lifting a finger.

Self-Publishing

With the rise of eBooks and Print-On-Demand publishing, there’s never been a better time to take the reins of your writing career and publish your own work. We provide both one-time consultations and on-going project management. From editing to publicity to cover design, we’ll be here every step of the way to guide you through the process and help you put out a book you can be proud of.

Unsure if your project is a good fit? Shoot us a line.
