François Halleux

Encre Soi is a biographical writing support service. Based on interviews conducted with individuals, I write the life story told to me in order to edit a book intended for a private circle. Encre Soi also handles the editorial packaging for self-published authors, as well as text editing, proofreading, and rewriting.

As part of my collaboration with the Maison de la Poésie d'Amay, I am responsible for proofreading the books in the various collections. My keen eye misses no typos and spots all punctuation and consistency issues to make the text flow better. This collaboration has allowed me to better understand authors' intentions and adapt to each person's style, while respecting the requirements of ortho-typographical correction.

As part of this role, I supported the launch of a young publishing house in Liège. Social media, press kits, distribution to bookstores – I handled the promotion of the two books already published and sifted through the manuscripts received. This collaboration allowed me to develop various editorial projects, working with authors, booksellers, journalists, and project leaders.
