    Would anyone be interested in assisting us in starting up a help service for authors who need assistance to getting their books/manuscripts ready to publish

    I'll help, but only if you let me be in charge of putting question marks at the end of questions.

    Who is 'us' and what do you do exactly?

    not if the standard of writing in that opening post is anything to go by I'm afraid

    I think the only 'help' that would be of significant use to an aspiring author, with a manuscript, with regards to getting published would have to come from industry professionals. Anything short of that just couldn't be relied upon to rise to the industry standard.

    Creative writing groups such as this board already constitute the type of help you're talking about I think.
