Every book begins somewhere: an idea, a memory, or a collection of pages that don’t quite fit together yet.
Sometimes you know exactly what you want to say, but not how to shape it into a finished manuscript.
Other times, the story is still buried in journals, fragments, or moments you haven’t fully put into words.
That’s where I come in.
I help life stories become real books, so what you’ve lived can be understood, held, and shared the way it was meant to be.
Whether you need help writing the story, shaping what you already have, or simply figuring out where to begin, there are a few ways we can work together.
Memoir Rescue Package
For writers who have pages… but aren’t sure if they have a book yet.
Many memoirs begin as scattered pieces: journal entries, memories written during difficult seasons, or chapters that don’t quite connect yet.
The Memoir Rescue Package is designed for that exact stage.
I read through your manuscript and help identify the story that’s already there, then provide guidance on how to shape it into a clear narrative.
What you receive
• A full read-through of your manuscript
• A detailed editorial letter explaining what is working and what needs strengthening
• Guidance on the core story and emotional arc
• Suggestions for structure and chapter flow
• Notes on areas that may need more context or expansion
By the end of the process, you’ll have a clear roadmap for turning your writing into a finished memoir.
Starting at $350
Final pricing depends on manuscript length and depth.
Editing & Story Development
For manuscripts that need structure and story shaping.
This service focuses on the big picture of a book. Instead of correcting sentences, we look at how the story itself works.
This includes elements like:
• narrative structure
• pacing and emotional flow
• clarity for the reader
• chapter organization
• identifying missing context or connections
This stage is often where a memoir truly becomes a book. Together, we strengthen the story so readers can follow the journey you’ve experienced.
By the end of this process, your manuscript will have a stronger foundation, clearer direction, and a structure readers can follow with ease.
Starting at $450
Most projects fall between $450 – $1,200, depending on manuscript length and depth.
Ghostwriting
For people who have a story to tell but need help bringing it fully to life on the page.
Ghostwriting is a collaborative process where I help shape your experiences, ideas, and message into a book that feels true to you.
Some clients come with detailed notes or recorded conversations. Others simply carry the story with them and need a partner to help draw it out and give it form.
Through interviews and guided conversations, we build your book together, piece by piece, until what once felt scattered or overwhelming becomes a clear, cohesive narrative.
You won’t lose your voice in this process.
You’ll hear it more clearly than you ever have before.
This is a deeply collaborative process, and each project is shaped around your story, timeline, and level of support needed.
Ghostwriting projects typically begin at $3,000+
Most full-book projects fall within $3,000 – $12,000+, depending on scope, length, and involvement.
Payment plans are available for all projects.
Copywriting
Clear, engaging writing isn’t only important for books.
I also offer copywriting services for individuals and organizations who want their message communicated with clarity and heart.
This may include:
• website copy
• blog articles
• storytelling-based brand content
Whether you need a single piece or ongoing support, I focus on writing that connects, not just fills space.
Starting at $75 per piece
Larger or ongoing projects are quoted based on scope.

Not Sure Where to Start?
That’s more common than you might think.
Many writers reach out, simply wondering whether what they’ve written could become a book. If you’re unsure which service fits your situation, feel free to reach out and tell me a little about what you’re working on.
From there, we can figure out the best next step together.
