Research, Argument Structure and Source Verification

Research, Argument Structure and Source Verification

Good nonfiction makes an argument and keeps the reader oriented. Your writer starts by clarifying the book's promise: what the reader will understand or be able to do by the end. The chapter structure is then built to deliver that promise step by step, with each chapter making one clear point and earning its place.

Facts, figures and quotations are checked against their sources, and anything that needs a citation is referenced. Where your own experience supports the argument, the writer draws it out in interviews so the book is grounded in what you actually know.

Writing services

What a professional writer brings to your book

Here is what you gain when your book is handled by a specialist writing team at Potter Publishers, working alongside editors, designers and publishing specialists under one roof.

LIVE CHAT

Structure that holds

Your book is planned chapter by chapter before drafting, so the finished manuscript reads as one connected whole rather than a collection of pieces.

Your voice, not ours

Interviews, samples and review rounds keep the writing sounding like you, whether the book is a memoir, a business book or a novel.

Time back in your life

You share your knowledge and stories in conversations; the writer turns them into polished pages on an agreed schedule.

Confidential and yours

Agreements cover confidentiality and confirm that you own the manuscript and the copyright when the project is complete.
