Nothing Lasts is the first fiction novel of Brian Hughes, a quirky young author. Brian had decided to self-publish his book through Amazon, and approached Steta for editing and proofreading.
The book underwent several rounds of stringent proofreading. With the author, we collaboratively decided we would stick with the UK style of English. This meant a nerve-wracking scanning of all commas, numbers, spellings and quotation marks. We shared our feedback on the story and style with the author, as he had requested. We approached a graphic designer to design the book cover, which had to reflect the spirit and tone of the book.
Helping a new author get published proved truly satisfying! You can buy Nothing Lasts here.
