LGC’s Ghostwriter Service

We’ll assess your project, meet up, workshop ideas and assign the writers. Then we’ll begin the interviews and start the work. Through the discussions with us, we’ll identify your story’s core theme as we build and edit and as your work takes shape, we maintain close contact throughout editorials. We’ll keep editing until the text is print-ready. Finally, we’ll shortlist agents and publishers for the project. Our service will be tailored to your needs, and it’s 100% confidential. You will retain all rights to your work.

Ghostwriters and Editors

We work throughout the publishing industry with the UK’s most experienced professionals. Visit the Team page and our Writers’ Lounge to meet some of our ghostwriters and editors.

Bespoke Writing Support

We are a dynamic team of creative writers supporting publishers, new writers, known authors, and thinkers. With our network of contacts, we can source and onboard the talent your project need, whether it’s a specific type of editor, the right industry feedback, or expertise on a particular subject. We know which literary agents to submit to, and how.

We invite you into the creative process of workshops and meetings and meaningful conversations and we don’t leave you after the book is finished; we provide ongoing support through the submissions and publishing process so you are not lost at sea after your project is complete. Our discreet and scholarly service is collaborative and fun.

What is the ghostwriting service? How does it work?

We host focused discussions and build the key documents: publishing proposal, manuscript and query letter. As the project takes shape we maintain regular contact through progress updates and development meetings For more info on the process, visit our ghostwriting page.

How much does it cost to hire a ghostwriter?

Prices change depending on the project and the writers involved. Each project will demand different amounts of time and talent so we quote changing amounts on a project-by-project basis but projects average around £30,000 but can climb to £100,000 and beyond.

Can you get my book published?

We cannot guarantee this, as there are too many factors outside our influence. Sending out a well written and fully realised project, accompanied by a high-quality query letter naturally enhances your chances. Our process, with an emphasis on a strong publishing proposal with tailored submissions, is designed to maximise the likelihood of your work being considered seriously by agents and publishers.

Which writer will I be working with at LGC?

Project teams are tailored to the needs of the project, typically including a lead writer (your ghostwriter), editor, and sometimes external consultants for specialist subjects, with video or 1:1 meetings to ensure a good fit. Each project is unique and managed individually.

Do we need to sign an NDA?

We don’t need to sign NDAs for confidentiality and copyright. For all info concerning this, read this Terms page which details key info concerning copyright.
