Manuscript Studio ghostwriting services are fully customized and tailored to your needs, your voice, and the unique tone and goals of your project. All work is, of course, kept completely confidential.
01. Valet

Manuscript Studio will evaluate, edit, and revise your draft according to your vision, including fresh writing as needed. You will receive a complete, polished, fully edited manuscript, ready for publication. Picture books are a distinct art form, so separate pricing applies.

03. The Road
If you're not sure where to begin but have a burning idea, this service will develop it from the ground up.
Whether it's a picture book idea, a memoir structure for a competitive market, or a multilayered, nuanced, and saleable novel outline, Manuscript Studio will develop the groundwork for your dream to become a reality. You will receive a fully imagined and pressure-tested story bible, including character development, plot, and major narrative structure beats. This service is included in both the Valet or the Chauffeur, but can be commissioned on its own.
