Book Planning
We identify the audience, purpose, central themes and likely length. A chapter outline gives the project a structure before the first full draft is written.
You may have a story worth telling without the time to write a full manuscript. You may also have years of professional knowledge and need help organising it into chapters readers can follow.
Our ghostwriting support helps authors across Australia develop fiction, memoirs and non-fiction books through interviews, planning and collaborative drafting. The aim is to express your ideas in a voice that feels like yours.
You stay involved throughout the project. We agree the scope, confidentiality, authorship and review process before turning your notes or conversations into a manuscript.
Tell us about your project and the support you need.
Choose the support that fits your project. We discuss your audience, preferred formats and budget, then put the agreed work into a clear plan.
