You talk through your ideas with a Book Director. Our team turns those sessions into a manuscript that sounds like you, edits it with a 4x New York Times bestselling editor, then designs, publishes and launches it with you. You keep every royalty and all of the IP.
The authors who do finish usually take 6 to 12 months. Ghostwriters take nearly as long and often miss your voice. With Author.Inc, your first draft arrives within two weeks of your final recording session.
Your Book Director interviews you. Editors cut, order and set the cadence. Nothing gets invented, so your name goes on the cover without an asterisk.
