FAQs

  • Why should I choose you?

    Because we are amazing of course! Kidding! Yes, we are amazing, but mostly because we see things in a way that much of the world does not. This allows us to tell your story in a way that no one else could and bring to light things that would normally be missed.

  • What about Covid? Do you still meet with people in person?

    Here at Maiden Voyage Writing we are a little old fashioned in that we like to put a face to the name. So yes, we would like to meet you in person if possible. However, we also want you and us safe. Thus video meetings, emails, and phone calls are always available as well.

  • What if I can't afford your services right now?

    That’s ok! We still ask that you reach out to us to find out if there is something we can work out that will make both sides happy. We are of the belief that people come first and the rest will fall into place.

  • Do you build the website for me?

    While building isn’t our usual, we do offer it with stipulations. We have built websites for other clients. You can find our work at meraki-enterprises.net.

  • How long does the process take?

    Well, that depends entirely on what works for you and how much of a workload we currently have. Often the turn around is fairly quick. Product Descriptions can often be same day and Pages within a week. If a certain deadline is required, we will happily work with you to do everything we can to meet that deadline.

  • What kind of questions do you ask?

    We ask the questions that are required to tell your story. Most often that is simple things like “what do you do?” and “what are your goals for this?”. It can include some like “what are your favorite hobbies?” or “what does such and such mean to you?”. This allows us to get a fuller picture of what your story needs.

  • So all you do is the writing?

    Yes, most of what we do is strictly writing and editing. While we are flexible for the occasional helping in another area, our forte is writing and telling your story. This occasionally includes cover letters, speeches, website building, ect., but those you can reach out to us to see if we can help.

  • You charge for editing?

    We only charge for editing if that is all you require of us. Obviously, we edit our content before it is shipped out to you and if a flaw is found later, we will happily fix it for free!

  • Can't you just write what I need and then I can decide if I want to purchase?

    Afraid not. Like any service or product, it takes a lot of time and creative process for us to create the content you need. We put great thought into each and every sentence we create just for you and that deserves the price tag we put on it.

  • Where can I find samples of your writing?

    miFLAVOUR, the modern French bakery in Spokane has generously offered to allow anyone to read their website and product descriptions for a sample of our writing. They can be found at miflavour.com. While you are there, consider picking up some of their amazing goods. Their products help fuel our creative content here at Maiden Voyage Writing. Even writers need to eat.

    You can also find more of our work on our projects page.

  • Is there an option to put my project at the top of the priority list?

    We value each and every project that we work on, but we are happy to work with you on your deadline to make sure that it is met without interrupting the deadlines of the projects we are currently working on. Thankfully we are also able to work on more than one project at a time allowing us to meet several deadlines at the same time.
