EDITING SERVICES
What is Editing?
Editing is a vital stage in the writing process where a writer or editor meticulously enhances a draft to improve clarity, precision, and overall effectiveness. This multifaceted process involves correcting errors, restructuring sentences, and refining word choice to eliminate clutter and streamline the text. The goal is to present ideas in a clear and impactful manner, ultimately elevating the quality of the writing.
Engaging in the editing process can be remarkably creative. Thoughtful revisions can lead to improved clarity of ideas, a fresh interpretation of imagery, and sometimes even a significant rethinking of how you approach your subject matter. It is during editing that your manuscript transforms into a polished piece of work.
What is a Final Draft Edit?
A final draft edit occurs once your manuscript has reached completion. Opting for this service indicates that you are nearing the publication phase of your writing journey. It's essential to understand that this option does not include any further edits after the final version has been submitted for editing.
**Important Distinction:** Please note that editing differs from ghostwriting. Editing serves to refine and polish a manuscript that you have already written, focusing on grammatical accuracy, sentence structure, readability, and clarity. In contrast, ghostwriting involves creating original content on your behalf, using your ideas and concepts as source material.
Expected Project Timeline: We are dedicated to providing the highest quality resources for all our clients. Consequently, the anticipated turnaround time for our editing services is 45 days. Please be aware that rush orders will incur an additional fee, which will be determined based on the word count and the desired delivery date.
Editing Fee: $600 (this fee is based on a maximum word count of 25,000 words and increases two cents per word thereafter.
GHOSTWRITING SERVICES
What is a Ghostwriter?
A ghostwriter is a professional writer hired to produce content on behalf of another individual, typically an author, who will receive full credit for the work. The ghostwriter operates as a freelance writer, creating high-quality text in exchange for a fee, while remaining anonymous and uncredited for their contributions.
Ghostwriters are generally compensated in advance for their work, and the authors assume all ownership rights, including rights to the text produced by the ghostwriter. This collaborative arrangement allows authors to benefit from the expertise of an experienced writer without needing to write the material themselves.
Why Should You Hire a Ghostwriter?
If you have a brilliant idea for a book but find yourself unsure of your writing abilities, hiring a ghostwriter could be the ideal solution. I have successfully assisted numerous clients in various capacities, from developing existing manuscripts to crafting complete works for professionals such as ministry leaders, business executives, life coaches, and motivational speakers. The process may be simpler than you anticipate, and the potential for success is limited only by your imagination.
We specialize in taking your concepts and bringing them to life. My career has been dedicated to helping individuals like you transform their ideas into compelling, well-written books that they can proudly claim as their own. Rest assured, your name will appear on the final product, and you will retain all rights and royalties. As your ghostwriter, I will remain behind the scenes, allowing you to shine.

How Does the Process Work?
Ghostwriting projects are highly collaborative, requiring active engagement between myself and each client. The process begins with an in-depth discussion about your book’s premise. Following our conversation, I will provide a written agreement outlining the terms and completion deadlines, along with any information requests necessary to initiate the project.
Once you return the signed agreement, we will start this exciting journey. You will be asked to share your personal materials, including notes, outlines, and your overall goals for the book. We will explore your ideas regarding the chapter structure, book length, chapter titles, and more.
After gathering your input, I will dive into the writing phase—arguably the most rewarding part of the process! Each week, I will provide progress updates along with samples, suggestions, and questions to ensure your vision is being realized. Communication can occur via telephone or email, depending on your preference.
