Questions, Answered

Everything Authors Ask Us First

How long does it take to complete a book?
Most books are completed within 4 to 6 Weeks, depending on length and how quickly you're able to review chapters. Your project manager gives you a clear timeline before we begin.
Who owns the finished work?
You do — 100%. Every word, every design, every right.
Will I be charged for revisions?
No. Until you sign the end-of-services agreement, revisions are unlimited. We keep refining until you're proud of every page.
I can't pay the full amount upfront. Are there options?
Yes — our team offers flexible partial payment plans and seasonal discounts. Mention it in your free consultation and we'll build a plan that works for you.
I already have a manuscript. What's next?
Perfect — you're most of the way there. We'll handle editing, proofreading, cover design, formatting, publishing and marketing from here.
When should book marketing start?
Ideally 1 to 3 months before launch. Early momentum — reviews, audience building, Amazon optimization — is what separates books that sell from books that sit.
