Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQs)

Q1: I have an idea, but I’m not a writer. Can you still help?

Absolutely. Many of our clients are busy professionals and thought leaders who possess incredible ideas but lack the time or inclination to write. You share your vision, insights, and stories, and our expert ghost writers will meticulously transform them into a professionally written, compelling manuscript that perfectly captures your unique voice and tone.

Q2: Will I still be the author if you ghost write my book?

Yes, clearly. You retain 100% full authorship, ownership, and all rights to your book. Our ghost writing service is completely confidential and supportive; your name will be the only one appearing on the cover and in all copyright notices.

Q3: What genres do you work with?

We specialize in non-fiction books across a broad spectrum, including memoirs, business, personal development, academic works, and children's books. While our primary focus is non-fiction, we do offer limited fiction services depending on project scope and genre; please inquire for more details.

Q4: Do you offer editing even if I’ve written the book myself?

Yes, absolutely. We provide comprehensive, standalone editing and proofreading services tailored to manuscripts you've written yourself. Our services range from developmental editing for structure and content, to line editing for clarity and style, and final proofreading for flawless accuracy.

Q5: What formats do you support?

We provide meticulous formatting for all major digital and print book formats: eBook (Kindle/Mobi, EPUB, PDF), Paperback, Hardcover, and Large Print editions. These formats are optimized for seamless upload and readability on platforms like Amazon KDP, Apple Books, Google Play Books, and for wider distribution channels like IngramSpark.

Q6: Can I request revisions to my book cover?

Absolutely. Client satisfaction is paramount. We include specific rounds of revisions for your book cover design to ensure it perfectly aligns with your vision, genre, and market appeal. Your input is crucial throughout the design process.

Q7: Do you also design children’s book pages?

Yes, we offer specialized services for children's books, including illustration sourcing/design guidance and playful layout formatting. We help create visually engaging pages tailored for young readers. Please note, our service focuses on the digital and print ready files; we do not provide audio production or physical printing services.

Q8: Will you publish the book under your own account?

No, never. Your complete control and ownership are fundamental to our service. We provide expert guidance and hands-on assistance to publish your book exclusively under your own author accounts (e.g., Amazon KDP, Apple Books, Google Play Books). We can securely assist with setup using your login credentials, but all royalties and rights remain directly with you.

Q9: What if I don’t want to handle publishing myself?

While our standard process empowers you to publish under your own accounts for full control and direct royalty tracking (which we strongly recommend), we understand some clients may prefer not to engage with the platforms directly. In such exceptional cases, we can discuss managing the upload process on your behalf, with clear agreements in place regarding account access and data.

Q10: How long does the process take?

Project timelines are tailored to the scope and complexity of your book. As a general guide, a comprehensive ghost writing project might span 8-16 weeks, while editing and formatting typically range from 2-4 weeks depending on manuscript length and our current schedule. We'll provide a clear, personalized timeline estimate during your initial consultation after reviewing your specific project needs.

Q11: Is everything confidential?

Yes, absolute confidentiality is a cornerstone of our service. All your ideas, communications, files, and intellectual property are handled with the utmost discretion and under strict non-disclosure protocols. We are always prepared to sign a formal Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) for your peace of mind.

Q12: What are your prices?

Each project is unique. Once we review your requirements, we’ll send a customized quote based on the services you need.

Q13: How do payments work?

Payments are structured in clear, milestone based installments (e.g., an initial deposit upon project commencement, with subsequent payments linked to agreed upon deliverables). We facilitate secure, globally recognized payment methods such as Payoneer, Wise (formerly TransferWise), and international bank transfers, accommodating clients from various locations.

Q14: What if I’m not satisfied?

Client satisfaction is our highest priority. We are dedicated to delivering results that exceed your expectations. For every service, we incorporate specified rounds of revisions to ensure your complete alignment and approval. We maintain open communication throughout the project to prevent dissatisfaction. Due to the nature of intellectual and creative work, refunds are considered only in exceptional, pre-agreed circumstances as outlined in our service agreement.
