The process and deliverables for the ghostwriting component of this package are:
Two 90-minute Book Blueprint Sessions with members of your writing team
Creation of a written outline and table of contents for your book (unlimited revisions)
Up to ten 90-minute book interviews with your Ghostwriter (one per week for up to 10 weeks)
A completely ghostwritten manuscript written in YOUR unique voice (delivered in first draft, second draft, and final draft formats for revisions)
Submission to our Readers' Panel for unbiased feedback, followed by a session with members of your writing team
Detailed developmental and copy editing, with adherence to The Chicago Manual of Style (17th Edition), and Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary (11th Edition)
Delivery of final manuscript to our Merack Publishing team for publishing
During your initial Vision & Strategy Session, you can determine whether you’d like to start with the Personal Branding or the Book Blueprint elements of your package first.
Please note: Manuscript page count is calculated in single-spaced, 12-pt. font size. The average total timeline from the Book Blueprint Session to Book Launch is 8 months, though the total timeline may vary due to the author’s speed and the timing of the reading and review process in between drafts.
