Why I do this
My day job is tech care for small businesses: broken sites, tangled integrations, slow pages, hacked servers. The through-line is the same: someone has a mess of raw material and needs one person to take it on, structure it, and finish it. A book is just a different kind of mess.

Who this is for
Most people who want to write a book already have the raw material. They just don't have the time and structure to turn it into a finished book. That's the gap I fill.
A decade of blog posts, LinkedIn posts, podcast interviews, and conference talks. Turn it into an authority book for credibility and lead gen.
Your frameworks, articles, and signature talks, structured into a book that supports your sales conversations.
One signature talk you have given 40 times, expanded into a book you sell at the back of the room.
A life story worth capturing. Six to ten hours of recorded interviews, turned into a finished memoir.
Letters, photos, and oral histories from aging parents or grandparents, captured as a keepsake book before they are lost.
Years of blog posts that deserve to be more than an archive. Turn them into a booklet or book you can hand out or sell.
Dozens of episodes on a theme. Your best transcripts, structured and rewritten into a book your listeners can hold.
A year of posts that built your reputation. Assemble them into a book that backs up your sales conversations.
If you've written, spoken, or lived it, the raw material is mostly there. I'm the person who turns it into a finished book.
Packages
All eight share the same backbone: intake, gather, structure, draft, polish, deliver. They differ in source material, effort, timeline, and price. Pick the one that fits what you already have.

Start a MemoirHow it works
The same six-step process for every package. The difference is what source material we gather and how much interviewing is involved.
I confirm which package fits, assess whether the source material exists, and quote a price. No pressure, no obligation. I'll also write a 500-word sample from your own material so you can see the voice before you commit.
You sign the intake form and the source material license. You confirm you own or have permission to use everything you hand me.
You send the source material via a secure upload folder. Blog posts, LinkedIn, podcast transcripts, talks, letters, photos. I catalog everything.
We agree on the book's arc, chapter outline, and voice. For memoir and family legacy packages, this is the first of several interviews.
I draft chapter by chapter against the structured outline, drawing from your source material. You review each chapter. Then a final editorial pass for voice consistency, fact-checking, and cleanup.
Print-ready PDF and EPUB files. Optional publishing add-on ($750) covers cover design, ISBN, and KDP or IngramSpark setup.
FAQ
You do. Fully. The moment you pay the final invoice, the copyright is yours. The book reads like you, not like me. Your name goes on the cover.
Co-author: no, this is ghostwriting. Acknowledgments: yes, if you want to. Your choice either way.
Then this isn't the right service. I work from what you already have. If you have no body of work, no talks, no interviews, and no willingness to be interviewed, I'm not the right vendor. Use the contact form and I'll refer you to a full ghostwriter who writes from scratch.
Two rounds of revision per chapter are included. If after two rounds it's still not right, we talk about whether the source material or the brief needs adjusting. Additional revisions are $150 per hour.
No. Memoir and nonfiction only. I don't write novels.
Yes. Source material is stored in a private folder, shared only with you, and deleted on request after delivery. I don't share client material with anyone else.
For memoir and family legacy projects, I flag anything that names a non-consenting living person. We discuss whether to anonymize, get consent, or cut. I won't publish something that exposes someone without their consent unless you take full legal responsibility in writing.
KDP (Amazon) and IngramSpark by default. Other platforms on request. The publishing add-on ($750) covers cover design, ISBN, and setup.
Marketing the book after publication. Guaranteed bestseller status (anyone who promises this is lying). Unlimited revisions (two rounds per chapter included, then $150 per hour). Print copies are included in the Family Legacy package (ten softcover) but not in the others. Additional print copies are available at cost for any package.
Use the contact form or email me. A 20-minute discovery call. If we're a fit, I send the intake form and the source material license. You sign, pay the 50 percent deposit, and we begin.
Tell me what you have and what you want. I'll tell you which package fits and what it costs. No pressure, no obligation. I'll also write a 500-word sample from your own material, free, so you can hear the voice before you decide.
