Premium vs. Standard Ghostwriting

We offer two tiers to match your budget and preferences:

Premium: Fully Human-Crafted (No AI)

  • Original writing by experienced authors
  • Research as needed and genre-specific expertise
  • Extensive revision and refinement process
  • Fiction: $0.13/word
  • Nonfiction: $0.15/word
  • Memoirs: $0.17/word

Standard: AI-Assisted with Human Refinement

  • AI-generated first drafts refined and polished by professional authors
  • Human oversight ensures voice consistency and quality
  • Faster turnaround times
  • All genres: $0.08-$0.10/word

Pricing within the AI-assisted range depends on project clarity. Clients who provide detailed outlines, character profiles, or clear specifications receive the lower rate. Projects requiring more development work from our team fall toward the higher end.

Both options include milestone-based payment, unlimited communication, and revisions at each milestone.

Genres We Excel In

Fiction:

  • Thrillers & Suspense
  • Science Fiction & Dystopian
  • Paranormal & Urban Fantasy
  • Romance & Contemporary Fiction
  • Literary Fiction
  • Action & Adventure

Our Milestone-Based Process

We work in manageable increments so you stay in control and only pay for what you've approved:

1. Initial Consultation & Outline Development We discuss your vision, audience, and goals. Your ghostwriter creates a detailed chapter-by-chapter outline for your approval.

2. Milestone-Based Writing Your manuscript is written in 15,000-20,000 word increments (approximately 5-7 chapters). You review and approve each section before we move to the next milestone.

Payment: You pay for each milestone upfront before we begin writing that section. For example, for a 16,000-word milestone at $0.13/word ($2,080), you pay when we're ready to start that section.

3. Revision Within Each Milestone If adjustments are needed during a milestone, we revise before moving forward—ensuring we stay aligned with your vision throughout the project.

4. Final Delivery After all milestones are complete, you receive your full manuscript in multiple formats (Word, PDF, ebook-ready files).

Timeline: 4-6 months for a full-length novel, depending on length and complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a complete outline before starting? No. If you have a solid concept but need help developing the structure, we'll work with you during the outline phase to flesh out your story.

How involved do I need to be? As much or as little as you prefer. Some clients provide detailed chapter outlines and review every milestone closely. Others give us a concept and trust us to run with it. We adapt to your style.

Can I request changes during the process? Yes. Each milestone includes revision rounds. If something isn't working, we'll adjust before moving forward.

What if I don't like the first milestone? There are two revisions per milestoneat no additional cost if the direction isn't right. This ensures we're aligned before progressing.

Do you write in my voice or develop a new one? Either. If you have existing published work, we can study and match your voice. If this is a new pen name or first book, we'll develop a voice that fits your genre and audience.

What genres do you NOT write? We don't write extreme content (graphic violence for shock value, non-con erotica). For other niche genres, contact us to discuss—we may have a specialist available.

How do I know my idea won't be stolen? All clients sign a confidentiality agreement before we begin. Your story, concept, and all work product belong to you entirely.
