Our Dothan, Alabama Office and US Remote Team
Our home base is Dothan, Alabama, and our writers, editors and designers work remotely across the United States. If you are local, we are glad to meet in person by appointment so the right specialist is available.
Local authors are welcome, and authors in other states get exactly the same service. Most authors never need to travel. Calls, video meetings and email cover everything, and we can find a time that suits your time zone and your working day, including slots outside the usual nine to five if your schedule demands it.
What Happens in Your Free Consultation
A consultation is a conversation, not a sales pitch. It usually takes 20 to 45 minutes, by phone or video. We will ask about:
- Your book: the idea, genre, length and how far along it is.
- Your readers and goals.
- Your timeline and budget.
- How involved you want to be.
- Any questions you have about rights, ownership or how publishing works.
You leave with an honest recommendation, whether that means ghostwriting, editing, publishing or simply more writing on your own. If we are a good fit, we follow up with a written proposal, a fixed quote and a schedule. See our pricing for starting points, and ask us anything, including how your ISBN is set up in your name.
Tell Us About Your Project
Use the form to share your name, your contact details, the kind of book you have in mind and where you are in the process. Already have pages? You can submit your manuscript instead. A short note is fine, because we will fill in the details together. Not sure which service you need? Say so. Working that out is part of what the consultation is for, and you will get a straight answer.
Contact Us FAQs
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation, and you do not have to decide anything during the call. Take as long as you need afterward.
How quickly will you reply?
Within one business day. If you call and we miss you, we return the call as soon as we can. Email and form messages are checked every business day.
Do I need a finished manuscript to get in touch?
No. Many authors start with an idea, an outline or a partial draft, and we will point you to the right first step. You can send pages later.
Will you keep my idea confidential?
Yes. Team members who handle your material work under confidentiality terms, and your copyright stays yours.
