Y
yBook: "reads text, RTF or HTML files and displays the contents on side-by-side pages just like an open book. If you do a lot of reading from your screen (your own work, online workshop subs, short story subs) yBook will make life easier. Free."
Your Best Work: "We offer copyediting and critiquing at reasonable rates. We will copyedit two pages free as a trial of our services. You can email or snail mail submit and pay by credit card or direct credit in American, Australian and Euro dollars or cheque if you pay in Australian Dollars."
yRead: "will load a plain text (TXT) or HTML file and display it in a single-column, resizable window. There's nothing really magic about that (yBook does it better) but this program will read the file to you out loud. It's great for authors who are self-conscious about reading their work alound - just plug in your headphones and run your fiction through yRead. Free."
yWriter: "A tool for novelists (or anyone else who needs to keep a slew of text files together and easily swap from one to another). yWriter gathers text files into a project and lets you edit them individually. Also maintains an overall word count. SE version is free (and fully-functional)"
Z
Zebra Communications: "offers a full line of service to fiction and nonfiction book writers. We line edit and/or edit for concept, mentor and assist writers to help them make their writing marketable, and even help with design, printing and distribution for authors who self publish."
