Publishing

  • The underlying philosophy of Sarah Cête Press is based in the notion that books are artefacts. They tell us about our culture, our hopes and distresses, and they provide a visual record for generations to come.
  • Sarah Cête Press aims to produce books that are lovely to hold and books that inspire readers by their physical presence.We encourage thoughtfulness about types of paper, cover design and binding, whilst being aware that books have a place in the contemporary market. They need to fit into the constraints of budget, and respond to changes in technology.
  • We are interested in books that heal and encourage a healthy spiritually, and a love of poetry and story.
  • We support local writers.
  • As well as publishing good stories, inspiring poetry, biogrpahy and memoirs  Sarah Cête Press aims to bring original, non-fiction books of self-discovery into the world.

Editing

  • Sarah Cête Press provides Professional Editing to CASE standards and proof-reading for academic papers, books, web-content, documents, brochures and copy.
  • If you have a small job (up to 20 pages) that needs a 24 hour response, you can buy editing below and send your document immediately to jessicasyme@iinet.net.au 
  • It will be returned to you "asap", marked up with corrections and suggestions. I suggest to calculate an hour for 5 pages of work with single spacing. Of course, the content and spacing will make a difference.
  • Heavy academic content will take longer. Poetry, perhaps, will be less time consuming. You are in charge of how much of your budget you spend on professional editing.
