About this service

Your book, in your words, without the blank page.

Plenty of people know exactly what their book should say and still never write it. Work gets in the way, or the words come out stiff, or they simply do not know how to structure 70,000 words. A ghostwriter closes that gap.

We start by listening. Two or three recorded interviews are usually enough for us to hear how you phrase things, which stories you tell and what you care about getting across. From that we write a chapter outline with you, and then the draft itself, chapter by chapter, so you read and react as we go instead of waiting months for a surprise.

Memoir, business books and everything between

We ghostwrite memoir, leadership and business books, self-help, faith-based books, family histories and novels. The method is the same each time: your material, your voice, our drafting. You are the author. Your name goes on the cover, and our agreement says so plainly.

What we will not do

We will not invent stories you did not live, pad the word count or promise a bestseller. If a chapter is not working, we will tell you and fix it.

What is included

Everything in book ghostwriting, laid out plainly.

Recorded interviews

Relaxed conversations that capture your stories and your way of speaking.

Chapter-by-chapter outline

You sign off on the structure before a single chapter is written.

Full first draft

Written in your voice, delivered in sections so you can steer as we go.

Revision rounds

Two rounds of changes are included, and we keep going until it sounds like you.

Confidentiality

We sign an NDA and your credit is never mentioned anywhere.

Clean manuscript

A tidy, consistent file ready for editing and design.

How it works

Four steps, no surprises.

1

Discovery call

We talk through the idea, the readers you want and how you like to work. You get a written quote after.

2

Interviews and outline

We record your stories, then agree a chapter-by-chapter outline with you.

3

Drafting

We write in sections and send each one for your feedback, so there are no surprises.

4

Revisions and handover

We revise until you are happy, then hand over the final manuscript and all rights.

Questions

Book ghostwriting: questions authors ask.

That is the whole point of the interviews. We listen to how you speak, your rhythm and the words you reach for, and we write to match. If a passage does not sound like you, mark it and we will rewrite it.

You do. Our agreement transfers full ownership and copyright to you, and you are free to publish under your own name however you like.

A typical 50,000 to 70,000 word book takes four to eight months. Shorter books are quicker. We give you a schedule with the quote, and it depends a lot on how fast feedback comes back.

Yes. Voice memos, old articles, journals and slide decks all help. The more raw material you have, the less time interviews take.

It depends on length, research needed and how much source material you already have. We quote a fixed price in writing after the first call, so you know the full cost before starting.
