Why do authors need a Professional Author Assistant?


Professional Author Assistants help bring order to all the chaos with writing a book and we break it down into three different sections: the manuscript phrase, the self-publishing phase or traditional publishing phase, and the marketing phase. For instance, in the manuscript phase nonfiction authors use quotes from other people or use other people's content. There are permissions to coordinate and a professional author assistant can complete this for the author.


If the author decides to self-publish, but then decides they want a traditional publishing deal, there's research they can hand off to their assistant. There are different pieces of a marketing proposal a PAA can research and find the needed information.

Writing a book, creating a proposal, finding an agent and publisher, and the marketing of the author and their book has many moving parts. If the author decides to self-publish, this process includes many moving parts as well. A PAA takes the pressure off by helping the author through all the different phases of writing, publishing and marketing their book.


Chela explains how she has helped her clients, and what you want to look for when seeking a Professional Author Assistant.

The Middle Temple Murder by Joseph Smith Fletcher Loyal Books Midnight. A lonely courtyard. The dead body of a stranger—a prosperous looking, well dressed, elderly man is found in Middle Temple Lane, London. This is one of England's ancient Inns of Court where barristers were traditionally apprenticed and carried on their work. Middle Temple is just a few minutes walk away from busy Fleet Street and the Thames Embankment. In the dead man's pocket is a piece of paper with the name and address of a young barrister. One of the first people to reach the crime scene is the investigative reporter, Frank Spargo, who writes for a leading London newspaper, The Watchman. Spargo is puzzled. Why would such a person be wandering about here at this hour? This extraordinary discovery draws Spargo into a labyrinthine web of intrigue, murder and crime in high places.The Middle Temple Murder by Joseph Smith Fletcher was first published in 1919 and is a great example of the classical English detective story.
