Launching Your Ideas with Confidence

FELLOWSHIP AT WORDHOUSE

Here at Wordhouse, we understand the importance of clear and impactful content. Our team of copy writers, editors, and translators work closely with authors and originators to ensure that their ideas are expressed with precision and authenticity. We encourage you to launch your ideas with confidence, whether you are already an experienced writer or just launching into a writing career.

Here at Wordhouse we translate from English into major Filipino languages: Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano, and Hiligaynon. In our translations, localizations, and interpretation, we strive to identify the language nuances that will help make your English into Filipino translation more dynamic than machine interpretation.

Here at Wordhouse, we evaluate fictional stories, personal essays, and narratives in translations. For millions of Filipinos working abroad as white and blue-collar workers, service providers, and entrepreneurs, nostalgia for their roots will always move them toward a deeper appreciation of their native language. But on a more pragmatic level, who wouldn't want a more direct communication that speaks right to the heart?

Each writer, translator, or originator lives within a specific milieu and geographical location. These factors greatly affect how they interact with texts and interpret their subjects. Older people are sometimes stubborn about their preferences, while younger ones are eager to experiment with language. There are generational differences as well influencing reception.

As we translate, edit, and evaluate texts here at Wordhouse we keep these realities in mind to ensure authenticity, accuracy, and faithfulness to meaning. Your story is safe with us. Here at Wordhouse we care about your ideas.

Frequently asked questions

What can I submit for review?

If you have a final draft of your work, submit a two-page summary of your manuscript. The summary must include an abstract of your subject matter, a prospective reader, and a short information about yourself. Include a table of contents. Your summary must indicate the total number of words or pages of your final draft. On the second page, indicate your sources, readings, and other related literature.

What is the difference between an offer to collaborate and an offer to do an exhaustive review?

Our team encourages the publication of books under the PAWR1 imprint. If your manuscript is a memoir, we will eagerly consider working with you on the development of your manuscript.

What can I expect after my submission?

You will hear from us within two weeks after your date of submission. We may send you an invitation for collaboration once we have read your summary. We may ask you to send us the whole manuscript for a more exhaustive review.

What else is offered aside from the above?

For manuscripts that have been finalized, you may also opt to enroll in our PAWR1 one-on-one workshop. This workshop aims to guide you on a ten-hour systematic editing and rewriting of your draft. You may only enroll in this workshop if you have a final manuscript ready for review.

What is involved in a collaboration?

If you accept our invitation to collaborate, we will offer to work with you toward the publication of your manuscript under our imprint. The collaboration will entail a shared costing of some or all processes of production.
