Ghost Writing
What Is Included
Each ghostwriting engagement covers the following:
– A full manuscript draft of approximately 30,000 words
– Development of the manuscript from client-provided source materials (written vision document or audio notes)
– One complete draft delivered as an editable Google Doc at the close of the engagement
– Basic internal quality review to minimize significant errors prior to delivery
What Is Not Included
This service produces a raw working draft, not a publication-ready document. The following are outside the scope of this engagement:
– Professional copyediting or proofreading
– Layout, typesetting, or formatting for print or digital publication
– Cover design or visual production
– Publishing or distribution support
Clients are encouraged to engage a professional editor and book designer prior to any public release of the completed manuscript.
Client Responsibilities
To begin the engagement, the client provides a vision document of approximately ten pages in written form, or the equivalent in audio notes. This material serves as the foundation for the manuscript and is used in place of ongoing interviews or sessions. No additional client sessions are required during the 90-day writing period unless mutually agreed upon.
The quality and clarity of the vision document directly shapes the depth of the final manuscript. Clients who take time to articulate their ideas, stories, or frameworks clearly will receive a draft that reflects their voice and intent with greater precision.
