Your ideas. My pen.

Book concept starter

Have a book idea that won’t leave you alone, and no idea where to start? Let’s start it together. $1500 flat fee. Turnaround: 3–4 weeks.

The “starter” is a collaborative package for future authors with a big idea and a lot of questions. In one month, you can have:

  • an outline rooted in your voice and goals

  • a compelling sample chapter that shows what the book could be

  • a full revision or rewrite of that chapter, so you can see the work evolve and gain traction

  • an action plan of next steps (whether you're writing it yourself or seeking a ghostwriter)

Ghostwriting for full book

Get that book unblocked from your heart and mind. We’ll work closely together to draw your best ideas out of you and capture them in a book within a year. Pricing varies depending on length and complexity of projects. Ghostwriting starts at around $32k for a 45,000+ word book.

I drive the process as we co-develop the concept. I reel out your best ideas, and present them back to you in short batches of test material. This ensures that we’re moving forward in a direction you love and understand.

Ghostwriting services

Every ghostwriter-author relationship is unique.

I provide a lot of value to people who have a lot of ideas and energy about their book. People who are excited to actively co-develop. People who want input. People who are willing to trust my process as we try things that might not work right away.
