Ghost Writing, Writing, Editing, Proofreading
Before publishing a book, there has to be a manuscript or a written draft, right? Not only that, but we also have to ensure that the draft is appealing, compelling, without errors, and prepared according to the publishing standards. We help you start writing with guidance through consultation. We also provide ghost writing services should you not wish to write yourself. Have a look at the video from our YouTube channel. It explains in detail what goes into the preparation of the manuscript before proceeding to the next stage of the publishing process.

Typesetting/ Layout and Design
The interior of your book is just as important as the preparation of your manuscript. It plays a huge role in the readability of the reader. We help to ensure that your book is well-presented. Have a look at the video on our YouTube channel where we share what goes into the layout and design stage.
For children’s books and cookbooks, illustrations and photographs are organised accordingly.

Book cover, ISBN
The first thing that a reader sees before reading the book blurb is the book cover. With a number of professional freelance graphic designers and book cover designers to choose from, whether you prefer a basic, medium, or advanced design according to your budget, we’ve got you covered. What’s important is that the book cover is unique, professionally done, and most importantly appealing.
We obtain the ISBN from the National Library of South Africa.
