Our team of professional published authors and screenwriters has the drive, passion, creativity and skill to deliver a work that you will be proud of. We offer the support you want from ghostwriting to editing, consultation, publication and marketing. Don’t hesitate, call today and let’s get started on your amazing idea!

What Should I look for in a Writing/Editing Firm?

A simple internet search turns up a multitude of writing and editing service firms, so how do you find a reputable, honest and trustworthy service? Consider these questions when making your selection:

• Does the price quoted sound legitimate? Price is often an indicator of quality. A super low price may seem like a bargain, but the old adage “you get what you pay for” still applies. The development of a high-quality best seller requires expertise and untold hours of work. Does the price quoted reflect that fact?

• At the end of the process, do you own the rights to your book? The bottom line is it’s your book and you should own the rights to it.

• Who is controlling the process? The ghostwriter is a collaborator. All the final decisions regarding the book should be yours.

• Is there a payment arrangement? Be wary of any ghostwriting services that request 100 percent payment upfront. You should be offered a payment installment agreement which allows you to pay when milestones are reached and you are completely satisfied.

• Is confidentiality part of the agreement? It’s your book and the ghostwriter’s name only appears on your book if you want it to.

Whatever firm you choose, make certain you select a company you can trust!

What if I don’t need the Comprehensive Package?

Here at CI Writing Services, you may choose exactly the services you need, from a single service to the Comprehensive package, we always tailor our services to your needs!

How Much Does All This Cost?

Since our services are tailored to your needs and your project is unique, our pricing varies according to your distinct project and your choice of needed services. The costs involved are negotiable – always based on your book and the services required – meaning the costs will vary based on your goals and the services you select.

How much Ghostwriter or Editor Interaction is Needed from me?

You may choose to interact a great deal or very little, it is entirely up to you. Generally, our clients choose regular communication via phone, Skype, email or messaging. We customize the process to support you and meet your needs!

What if I Don’t Know What Services I Need?

It all depends on you and where you are in your development and writing. If your manuscript is well-developed and complete, you may just require final editing or proofreading.

If you are in the early stages, you may want to request developmental editing, critical review or consultation to help you enhance your manuscript. 

Developmental editing provides in-depth support as you develop your story. If you feel your concept is solid, but you need comprehensive services, you may want to choose ghostwriting or rewriting to develop your story’s full potential.


Will I Work with the same Consultant throughout the Process? What if I have Multiple Projects?

Yes! We believe that continuity builds positive relationships and promotes consistently written works. If you have multiple projects, you may use the same consultant on each one. Should you desire a different consultant for each project, we’ll be happy to accommodate your request.
