HOW WE WORK

Four promises we keep

01

The price in writing first

Every project starts with a free call and a signed Statement of Work, so you know the fee before we start.

02

Writers first

Every page is written and edited by people who have spent their careers with words.

03

You own everything

Files, domains, logins and accounts stay in your name. Stay with us for support or take it from there.

04

Honest advice

If something isn’t worth the money, we’ll tell you, even when it means a smaller project for us.

WHY “PRAYRIE”?

The first flower on the prairie, and a little prayer

The pasque flower is the first bloom on the South Dakota prairie each spring, often pushing up through the last of the snow. That’s the work we like best: helping something new get started.

And yes, the “pray” in Prayrie is on purpose. Our faith shapes how we work: honest quotes, promises kept and every client’s project handled as carefully as our own.

“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.”

COLOSSIANS 3:23
WHERE WE ARE

We work from Vale, a few miles from Bear Butte in western South Dakota. Most clients are in the Black Hills; plenty are across the country. Either way, you’ll talk to the same two people from the first call to the finished project.

Pasque & Prayrie, Co.Book editing, publishing, brand and web from Vale, South Dakota. Rooted in faith, family and the prairie.
