What does a fiction ghostwriter do?

A fiction ghostwriter takes your plot, characters, or ideas and turns them into a fully written, compelling novel or story.

Can I give just a concept or outline?

Yes. Whether you have a rough idea or a detailed synopsis, I can expand it into a complete book with strong characters and arcs.

Will the book be publish-ready?

Yes. All projects include editing, formatting for Kindle, and optional support for self-publishing.

How long does fiction ghostwriting take?

Most fiction books take 3–6 months depending on length, revisions, and story complexity.

Will it sound like my voice?

Yes. Through interviews and feedback rounds, I shape the style and tone to match your vision and voice.

Can I give feedback or revisions?

Of course. Each package includes at least one revision round to ensure the story reflects your goals.

Do I get full rights?

Yes. You own 100% of the content and can publish it under your name with no restrictions.

Why Clients Hire Me to Ghostwrite Their Novels:

Your Story Deserves to Be Told — Fully, Fearlessly, and in Your Voice

Writing a novel isn’t just about getting words on a page—it’s about capturing the heart of your story. Whether you have a fully formed idea or just the spark of a character or scene, I help you turn that vision into a complete, compelling novel. With a process built on collaboration, discretion, and professional storytelling craft, we’ll bring your fiction to life—without losing your voice or diluting your intent.

Powerful Books Begin with Powerful Ideas

These are just a few of the 100+ books I’ve ghostwritten, coached, or developed—each one rooted in real experience, personal transformation, and a desire to create something meaningful and lasting.

What You’ve Imagined Is Bigger Than What You’ve Written

A ghostwritten novel isn’t just a creative project—it’s your imagination, your vision, your voice brought to life on the page. For aspiring authors, it’s a chance to finally turn that long-held story idea into a book that feels real, rich, and truly complete.

Clients often tell me the process is eye-opening. In our conversations, they rediscover forgotten ideas, explore deeper layers of their characters, and gain clarity about the world they’ve imagined. We collaborate closely—but I do the writing. You stay in control of the vision.

And when they hold the finished manuscript—crafted in their voice, shaped by their story—it hits different. It’s not just a book. It’s fulfillment. It’s validation. It’s the dream that didn’t die in a notebook or a file labeled someday.

Whether your novel is fast-paced, emotional, gritty, or genre-bending—let’s build it together, with the care and precision it deserves.

Build Your Legacy. Expand Your Influence. Write the Book.

You’ve imagined scenes, characters, or entire worlds—stories that echo with truth, even if they’re not drawn directly from your life. Whether you want to explore powerful themes, build something entirely original, or transform personal insights into compelling fiction, your story deserves to be told—and told well.

My process is collaborative, structured, and entirely confidential. Through thoughtful conversations, I help you shape your ideas, develop your characters, and map out a plot that holds together from the first page to the last. You share the vision—I handle the writing, weaving your creativity into a finished novel.

This isn’t just about writing a book. It’s about creating something lasting: a powerful story that feels personal, sounds like your voice, and captures the imagination of your readers.
