The ghostwriting process has several variables that determine price. Some of these include:

1. Word count
2. Amount of manuscript that is complete
3. Amount of research necessary to complete the manuscript
4. How complete the idea of the author is

The typical first time author averages between 50,000 to 70,000 words in their first book. It is a good idea to keep it around this number, and not much higher so publishers don't feel they're risking too much of their investment on a first time author.

Because ghostwriting is subject to variability on these factors, most first time projects with at least a partial manuscript, average between $10,000 and $14,000.

Payment schedule
We typically require a third of the fee as a deposit, a third at around halfway and the last installment upon delivery of the first draft. 

Please Note: We have been very busy lately. We do accept deposits ahead of time to secure a spot in our upcoming schedule. We may have a slot open, but we can also schedule 1 - 3 months out if not. Contact us as soon as possible to ensure a slot for your project.
