Every great book
starts with a conversation.

No. Every ghostwriting project is covered by a non-disclosure agreement. Your name goes on the cover and stays there. I will never disclose that I wrote your book without your explicit permission, and even then I typically choose not to.

You do, completely. The ideas, the story, and the finished manuscript belong entirely to you. My job is to give your story the words it deserves, not to claim any part of it.

Very. Ghostwriting is a collaboration, not a handoff. The best books come from deep conversations, multiple interview sessions, and ongoing feedback at every stage. If you are not available to engage throughout the process, the manuscript will show it.

It depends on the length and complexity of your book, but most full-length manuscripts take between four and twelve months from discovery call to final delivery. We agree on a timeline at the start and I work to it.

They each address a different layer of your manuscript. Developmental editing looks at the big picture: structure, narrative arc, pacing, and logic. Line editing works at the sentence level, refining flow, rhythm, and voice. Copyediting catches grammar, punctuation, and consistency. Proofreading is the final pass for errors before publication. Most manuscripts need more than one stage.

That depends on where your manuscript is in its journey. If the story has structural issues, developmental editing comes first. If the writing is solid but rough, line editing is the next step. Copyediting and proofreading come last. Book a discovery call and I will tell you honestly where your manuscript needs the most work.

Never. My job is to make your voice clearer and stronger, not to replace it with mine. A good edit should be invisible. When you read the final manuscript, it should sound more like you, not less.

Yes. Some of my favourite projects have been first books. What matters is that you are ready to engage with feedback and willing to do the revision work that a real edit requires.

With traditional publishing, a publisher acquires your book, funds the production, and handles distribution, but you give up a significant share of the royalties and creative control. With self-publishing, you retain all rights and earn higher royalties, but you fund and manage the entire process. Neither is better in every situation. That decision is one of the first things we work through in the consultation.

Yes, if you want your book to be commercially distributed and recognised as a published title. In Nigeria you can obtain one through the National Library. Some platforms like Amazon KDP assign free ISBNs, but owning your own gives you more control. We cover this in full during the consultation.

It depends on the platform. Amazon KDP's Select programme requires exclusivity, meaning you cannot distribute elsewhere during enrolment. Outside of that, you can publish on KDP, Selar, and other platforms simultaneously. We will map out the right distribution strategy for your book and goals during the call.

I am based in Lagos, Nigeria, and work remotely with clients across Nigeria, the UK, the US, and beyond. Everything happens online — video calls, shared documents, and email.
