Non-fiction ghostwriting for experts with a book in mind
Your knowledge, research and experience, organised into a clear and readable book. We plan the argument with you, gather what you know through interviews and documents, and write it in your voice.

- Founders and leaders
- Educators and researchers
Structure is what makes non-fiction readable
Most experts know far more than one book can hold. The work is deciding what the reader needs, in what order, and what to leave out. We build that structure with you before a single chapter is drafted.
Your writer then turns interviews, slides, articles and notes into chapters that explain clearly without losing the detail that makes you credible.

Your written quote lists exactly what is included for your book.
I have lots of material already. Can you use it?
Yes, and we encourage it. Talks, articles, slides, reports and course notes are all useful. Your writer works out what belongs in the book and what is missing.
How do you make sure facts are right?
Your writer flags claims that need support and gathers references. You remain the expert and approve the final text.
Can you write a book proposal for agents or publishers?
Yes. A proposal with an overview, chapter summaries and sample chapters can be prepared as part of the project or on its own.
How much does non-fiction ghostwriting cost?
Quotes depend on length, the amount of research and interviewing, and your timeline.
