LifeLines Press is delighted to announce that as from March 1st they will be running a mentoring service on line for writers of non-fiction. Whether you’re setting out to write your own memoirs, or the history of your family, or even the history of your house, we can offer direct advice and help as you set about planning, writing and editing your work.

There are many quite complicated on-line writing courses available today, most of which require you to pay a course fee up front. At LifeLines Press we will be offering you a simple fee structure so that you can ask for as little, or as much help as you need, and pay as you go. Full details of the course will be on the website by the end of February.

‘With LifeLines Press, it’s more a labour of love than
a business transaction. I was delighted with my limited editions.”
