Terms & Conditions

We provide ghostwriting, editing, design, publishing, marketing and related services. The scope, deliverables, schedule and price of each project are set out in a written proposal or agreement. If that document and these Terms differ, the written proposal or agreement applies.

Quotes are fixed for the scope described. Payments are made in milestones as set out in your agreement, and work on a milestone begins when we receive the related payment. Advertising spend for marketing campaigns is paid directly to the advertising platforms and is not included in our fees unless your agreement says so.

When you have paid in full, copyright in the work we create for you is assigned to you. You may publish under your own name without crediting us. We will not claim authorship or royalties. We keep our rights in pre-existing tools, templates and know-how, and in third-party materials we license, which may be subject to separate licence terms.

You confirm that the material you give us is yours to use, is accurate to the best of your knowledge and does not infringe anyone else’s rights. You are responsible for decisions about your book’s content, including statements about real people, and for obtaining permission to use third-party material unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Each agreement states the revision rounds included at each stage. Extra revisions or changes in scope are quoted separately and need your approval before work begins.

Each of us will keep the other’s confidential information private. We will not disclose our involvement in your project, or show your work in our portfolio, without your written consent.

You may end a project at any time by written notice. You will pay for work completed up to the date of cancellation, and we will deliver that work to you. Our Refund Policy gives the details.

We do not guarantee sales, rankings, reviews, awards, bestseller status or acceptance by agents or publishers. Results depend on many factors outside our control.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the fees you paid for the services that gave rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Content on this website is for general information and may change without notice. You may not copy or reuse it for commercial purposes without our permission. Please use the site lawfully and do not try to disrupt or gain unauthorized access to it.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information, and our Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Alabama, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The version posted on this page applies to your use of the site, and the agreement signed for your project applies to that project.
