publishing journey

Ditch the stress for something more you.

Publishing doesn’t have to be confusing, stressful, or soul-sucking. Let’s simplify the self-publishing process so you can focus on what matters—telling the story only you can tell. We’ll help you cut through the noise and create a clear, aligned path from manuscript to launch.

01

we're here for you every step of the way. 

From editing feedback to email templates, ad strategy to last-minute blurbs, we’re your creative partners. Need clarity on your plot? Help planning your pre-order campaign? We’ve got you. You don’t have to do this alone—and you shouldn’t have to.

02

YOUR VOICE IS ENOUGH. TRUST IT.

Our goal is always to preserve your voice and sharpen your vision. Whether we’re editing your prose or building your author brand, we’ll create a space where you feel confident, empowered, and deeply seen.

03

LET’S create TOGETHER.

You’ve got big dreams for your book—and we’re ready to chase them with you. Whether you’re launching a fantasy debut, relaunching a backlist, or expanding your readership through ads and ARC outreach, we’ll help you map the way forward.

04

We don’t just edit and promote books; we help bring your vision to life through a collaborative, curated experience.

RESOURCES

From editing checklists to launch timelines, social media templates to ARC outreach strategies—we share everything we've learned helping authors go from first draft to first review. You’ll get curated tools that make your publishing journey smoother and more sustainable.

our promise

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all advice. We’ll get to know you, your story, and your goals—then shape a plan that honors them. This isn’t just a transaction; it’s a creative partnership built on trust, encouragement, and a shared love for storytelling.

These help us understand your story, your audience, and what matters most to you—whether that’s tightening your plot, finding your voice, or finally figuring out how to show up online without feeling fake. The more we know about your book and brand, the better we can support you with edits, strategy, or both.

We work with indie fiction authors at any stage of their journey—from first-time writers to seasoned self-publishers. If you're passionate about storytelling and want professional, creative support, we’re here for you.

We love working with fantasy, romance, historical fiction, speculative fiction, and emotionally driven stories. If you’re not sure your genre fits, just ask!

What kinds of authors do you work with?

Back to faq's → 

Not at all. All of our services are available à la carte. You can build your own package to fit your timeline, needs, and budget.

Do I need to book a full package?

Back to faq's → 

While our heart lies with fiction, we occasionally take on creative nonfiction projects. Reach out and tell us about your book—we’ll let you know if we’re a good fit.

Developmental editing focuses on big-picture elements like plot, pacing, character development, and theme.

Copyediting is a line-level polish that addresses grammar, clarity, sentence structure, and consistency.

Proofreading is the final pass for typos, punctuation, and formatting errors before publication.

We’re happy to help you choose the right level for your manuscript.

What’s the difference between developmental editing, copyediting, and proofreading?


Back to faq's → 

Nope. We won’t change your voice or rewrite your story. Our job is to elevate your vision—not replace it.

Will you rewrite parts of my book?

Back to faq's → 

Nope. We won’t change your voice or rewrite your story. Our job is to elevate your vision—not replace it.


Will you rewrite parts of my book?

Back to faq's → 

Yes! Whether you’re looking for a social media strategy, ARC reader help, or a pre-order campaign, you can hire us for individual services or a custom package.

Can I hire you just for marketing?

Back to faq's → 

We offer ad setup and optimization for Amazon, Facebook, and Instagram. While we don’t run ongoing campaigns, we’ll equip you with the tools and strategies to manage them effectively—or take them over if you prefer a retainer.

Do you run ads for authors?

Back to faq's → 

Absolutely. We’ll help you find the strategy that works best for you—whether that’s through email newsletters, podcast features, virtual tours, or a reader magnet strategy.


I’m not on social media. Can I still market my book?

Back to faq's → 

We’ll start with a short discovery form, and if we believe your manuscript will be a good fit, we will then follow up with a consultation or email recommendation based on your needs. Once we confirm scope and availability, we’ll send a contract and invoice to officially begin.


What happens after I reach out?

Back to faq's → 

Absolutely. Confidentiality is baked into our contract, and we treat every story with the respect it deserves.

Will you keep my manuscript private?

Back to faq's → 

Yes! For editing services, we require a 50% deposit upfront, with the remaining balance due upon completion. For marketing services, we typically break the cost into milestones based on the project timeline (for example: pre-launch, mid-launch, and wrap-up). Custom payment plans can also be arranged for larger projects—just ask!
