Your level of involvement is entirely up to you. You can opt to work closely with your ghostwriter, or simply provide them with basic information and let them do the rest of the work. This is your book, which means that you have final say on the content and it’s your decision how and when you give your input and approval. We’ll work with you to customize the process so that it fits your schedule and preferred working style. Although in an autobiography/memoir it is highly recommended to work side by side with your ghostwriter.
We do not entertain walk-in customers, we are an online business and the process is convenient with telephonic interviews and chat sessions.

Although, you can always come and visit our office and have a cup of coffee with us.

Absolutely (in either case). Any writer who has several legitimate negative feedback reports will be removed from the network. Note: An editor refusing to work without prepayment or to do free additional work (above and beyond the scope outlined in the agreement) are not legitimate complaints; an editor missing a contractual deadline or becoming unavailable is. Because of the ethical guidelines of this network and the collection of feedback from network clients, legitimate complaints have rarely occurred since the company was formed in 2014. Please let the network coordinator know about your experience with your editor(s).
The internet is crowded with online editing and writing services, so it is really tricky to find out the best ghostwriter that do the job perfectly. Finding a loyal and genuine writing service looks like nearly impossible. Here are some things that you should consider before choosing a ghostwriter:
Price factor: be very honest, developing a good book is not an easy task as it takes several days and a lot of hard work. So, keep in mind that it also needs a good sum of money. Don’t be coaxed by affordable or third-rate ghostwriters.
Who owns the rights? It’s your idea and your book, so don’t give your rights to ghostwriters because some of the writers ask for partial rights. Be aware of these kinds of writers and don’t give your rights to anyone else.
Payment Arrangement: ghostwriters in installments. Pay only initial payment and pay the remaining amount if you feel satisfied with their work. So, contract a deal with the ghostwriter because it is the best possible option to reduce the risk of scams or fraud.
Who is in charge? Working with a ghostwriter is a collaborative effort, but you should have the final say on all content decisions. If a writer is unwilling to put your needs and requests first, then it will not be your book—it will be theirs.
Who is In-Charge? If you are working with a ghostwriter, it is called as a collaborative work. However, make sure that he write content according to your requirement and you are the boss for adding or removing content from the manuscript or book.
Should I opt a firm or freelancer? We advise you to choose a firm because they are slightly trustworthy than freelancers. But, don’t forget that there are several qualified and reputable freelancers. Most of these freelancers are overbooked so check their availability before hiring in order to decrease the future nuisance. With a firm such as ours, we ensure efficiency and deliver your project within the given time period.
Reputation: Check the reputation of the writing service by evaluating their writers, editors, and connections. Make sure that they have already worked on this kind of matter in the past or not. Always protect yourself and make sure that you are working with a renowned freelancer or firm.

Proofreading and Copy Editing: To correct the main grammatical and typing errors, we use copy-editing service. We only select perfectly written books for proofreading in order to remove flaws and errors.
Heavy Editing: Heavy editing involves in-depth revisions and review for checking grammar, diction, transitions, flow, style, syntax, sentence structure, and tone. If you are skilled writer, then it takes minor proofreading, but most manuscripts need heavy editing. We adjust the price on the condition of manuscript.

They both read your content thoroughly and then editors give comments about your material and suggest how to improve it with revisions and analysis.

It involves heavy editing and used for fixing major issues like character development, structure narrative, pacing, style, and voice. This technique is also used for addressing grammar and spelling problems. This service is best for new or first-time authors.

Writing process needs creativity and skill. It’s like an art that only a few people have. An editor is a must-have for a writer because he can track edits and collaborate with the writer to dig out the best final results. If you have existing material or manuscript, then we also help to make it better by evaluating it comprehensively and addressing all types of errors and issues.

Yes, absolutely. We will help you publish your book whether you want self-publishing or typical-publishing. We assist our clients in every type of publishing such as traditional-publishing, eBook publishing, print on demand (POD) publishing. In traditional-publishing, we will provide a list of publishing outlets and act as your literary agents. We will also work with our clients to develop a marketing strategy to attract buyers. In self-publishing such as soft or hard form, we will also guide you and offer the best available platforms. In the formatting and publishing process, we will always stand with our clients.
To publish your book traditionally, you need to find a literary agent to send your query letter or proposal. According to some writers, you have to send your sample work to more than 80 literary agents to secure a literary agent. This process is taxing and time-taking, but if you successfully find a literary agent, he works as a well-wisher for you and your manuscript. We will help you develop a customized query letter and best proposal and act as your literary agent to help you secure the publication deal.
There are many options for publishing a book. It totally depends on you what process you choose. Traditional publishing involves various publishing houses and literary agents that represent your book to different publishing outlets request them to publish your book. This process can be daunting especially for first-time authors. In the end, you will find a publisher that purchases the rights to print your manuscript. It is a really time-consuming process and normally takes several months and years. Self- publishing is the easiest and popular nowadays. Just format the book and upload it on any platform with a cover motif. Now, it’s up to you whether you prefer self-publishing or traditional publishing. We offer both services by providing the right consultation and recommendations.
Traditional publishing is time-consuming and overwhelming process for new authors. In this process, you have to find the right literary agent that convinces publishers to publish your book. Finally, he finds a publisher that agrees to purchase the rights to publish your book. In traditional publishing, your publisher is responsible for the final look of the book, publishing, and promoting.
Both traditional and self-publishing have specific advantages. Traditional publishing is best suited for potential authors because they will earn major profits and publicity with their book. Self-publishing is best for first-time authors because publishers don’t want to take a risk. So, they can just format their book and upload it on any digital platform with just a few processes. In traditional publishing, publisher can demand for change in your manuscript and you don’t get any rights. On the other hand, self-publishing offer more freedom and you can retain your rights. In short, traditional publishing is quite a professional method because the publisher is responsible for the marketing and distribution costs. Many new authors take the benefit of self-publishing to prove their capability and marketability and can get the attention of agents and publishers. In comparison with traditional publishing, self-publishing is gaining popularity gradually.
Yes, you can send specific sections of your work to different agents and publishers. But, the most effective method is to send a modified proposal or customized query letter to more than one agent and publisher. It is necessary to clear the idea of your manuscript in your query letter to catch the attention of the publisher.
In self-publishing, we will guarantee that your book will be published. You will also get a copy of your book and we also submit it on Kindle, Amazon, and other eBook platforms for sale. In traditional publishing, we will support and guide you in this process by providing a comprehensive list of genre-appropriate publishers that help you publish your book and also take responsibility for marketing and distributing your book and you will easily get your goals but will not guarantee what the publishers responsibilities are.
There is not a reliable way to predict book sales. With variables out of anyone’s control, such as media reaction to a book and author performance on interviews, predicting book or e-book sales is not precise. However, reputable marketing firms like ours only take on books that they believe, based on experience, have good potential for media coverage, which is the key to sparking book sales.

The Today Show and other morning and daytime talk/news shows are inundated with hundreds, sometimes thousands, of publicist pitches and books every day. However, the fact is we’ve placed both self-published and traditional authors on these shows numerous times. It’s never easy to get an author on a national TV show, but if your book is a good fit for a major show, we will make every effort to interest its producers. Big things happen for our authors every day.
Typically, yes. The controversy is often helpful to publicity. It sparks debate, makes for exciting interviews, and can help a book stand out from the crowd. However, we do not promote books that contain hateful messages, encourage violence, etc.
