GHOSTWRITING SERVICES
Safe House, by Edward Lee Howard, written with literary collaborator Richard N. Côté
Safe House

Every year over 45,000 books are published in the United States. Publishers report that professional ghostwriters or literary collaborators are involved with the vast majority of those projects which are successful. Why? Because writing books that inspire, entertain, inform, motivate and sell requires not only talent, but also extensive writing experience and detailed knowledge of the publishing process.

Many of our clients are business and professional men and women at the peak of their careers. They want to write books which will inspire, motivate, leverage their corporate image, or demonstrate that they are the thought leaders of their professions. Others are people with incredible true life stories of adventure, courage, and triumph over great adversity. A third group are the enchanters and the storytellers: the novelists of the future. Whatever their background, our clients all share several things in common:

  • They have valuable, interesting (and often controversial) ideas or experiences to share;

  • They are highly-motivated, tenacious, and have the patience to see their project through the publishing process;

  • They want to ensure that their book is written to the highest professional standards and has the best possible chance to be published and sell well; but

  • They lack the time or special skills to do the necessary research, writing, or editing or guide their manuscript through the bewildering maze of literary agents, publishers, or steps to self-publishing success.

Our ghostwriting services were designed for busy people like yourself. We meet with you in person to learn what you would like to cover in your book. We use our professional skills to expand, shape, clarify, focus, polish, and market your material. The finished product is your work, professionally enhanced. Because we have a large staff of skilled writers and editors, the work proceeds quickly. We can typically write a 200-page non-fiction book or a 300-page novel in 120 days. Give us another 90-120 days and we'll have finished books on the market for you.

We charge a fixed writing fee for our work. The cost is determined after extensive consultations to determine your needs and the amount of work necessary. You pay for the writing in monthly installments as each part is completed. We do not work "on speculation," that is, for a percentage of future profits. Consequently, when the writing is done, you alone own all rights to the copyright and to all earnings that the manuscript generates over its lifetime.

To discuss how you can use us to quickly and profitably help you write your book, please see below. We are located on the U.S. East coast, half-way between Miami and New York. Our office is open Monday through Friday, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Eastern Standard (New York) time.
