Lily Splane (formerly Word Wizard) has been a freelance writer and editor since 1970, and has been helping independent publishers get their books out into the marketplace since 1990. She has written manuals and booklets for small businesses and independent publishers on topics ranging from sewing-machine repair to electrical installation instructions to software instructions to popular psychology to business plans.

In addition to the published non-fiction works listed below, she has written two science-fiction novels: Cosmigellan: Universe Unfolding and Shadowverse, both available on the Anaphase II sub-site.

Lily’s book shepherding services allow authors a fast and inexpensive self-publishing option, helping them to realize their creative visions without investing the considerable time and money in starting their own publishing companies.
