Book ghostwriting
Book ghostwriters in the UK. Your story, written properly.
Memoirs, novels, biographies and business books, written with you by experienced UK writers. Your name on the cover. Every right stays with you.
Most people who want to write a book never finish one. Not because they lack a story, but because writing 70,000 good words takes months of focused time that a busy life rarely allows. A book ghostwriter gives you that time back. You talk; your writer listens, researches, shapes and writes. The result is a book that sounds like you on your best day.
Every book starts with a free consultation, then a writer chosen for your genre and voice. You see the outline before a word of the book is written, and you approve each chapter as it is finished. You never pay for a full book up front: fees are split into stages, tied to chapters you have read and approved.
We do not use AI to draft your book, and we write that into the contract. We also never take on academic work such as essays or dissertations, which is illegal to supply to students in England.

How much does a book ghostwriter cost in the UK?

Will my name be on the cover?
Yes. You are the author. Your writer signs a non-disclosure agreement and takes no credit unless you choose to thank them.
How long does it take to write a book?
Most full-length books take three to six months from first interview to finished manuscript. A shorter business book can be faster.
Do I need to have anything written already?
No. Most clients start with nothing but their memories, notes or expertise. If you do have a draft, your writer will build on it.
Can you help me publish it?
Yes. We offer editing, proofreading, cover design and Amazon KDP set-up, or we can prepare a proposal for literary agents.
