Our packages and costs

You have an idea for a book, but you don't have time to write it.  We do everything for you. We  interview you, capture the ideas, outline the book, write it, give you a chance to make changes and corrections, then we design the cover and interior.  You end up with a professional, high quality book within 4 months.  This package starts at $20,000  for a book up to 120 pages, up to $30,000 for a book up to 150 pages. Also included is 1 month of marketing and PR support.

Many authors want to write their own book, but feel they need support from an editor. Our 50/50 Book Program is the answer. We help you develop the ideas and flow of your chapters, then you write the first draft -- and we take it from there. We will edit, rewrite, revise, and strengthen your manuscript so that you will have a well-written book. We will then design and publish the book for you, This package runs from $10,000 to $15,000 including one month of marketing support.

If you have written a manuscript and  are seeking only editing, design, layout,

and publishing support, this program is for you.  Contact us to discuss costs as it depends on the length and complexity of your manuscript. 

Have lots of ideas, but can't figure out how to turn them into a book? We are experts at "Pulling the Book Out of You." This is a painless 1-day program, in which I work with you by phone, Skype, or in person to help you develop a complete outline of your book, chapter by chapter. I explore your ideas and help you figure out the central focus of your book, how to create a strong thematic core, and what the sequence of chapters should be. The result is a complete book outline.

Are you struggling with creating something new in your life to boost your career?  You feel that there could be a book idea as well, but you are not sure. If so, this is the package for you.  As a creativity expert, I spend an entire day with you driving up the beautiful California coast from Malibu to Santa Barbara. Throughout the trip, we discuss and probe your ideas and see what they could turn into -- a book, a movie, an invention, or all of these.  This is a fantastic day of creative investigation.  

From time to time, I conduct a 2 day 3 night retreat in beautiful Santa Barbara wine country for writers.  Contact me if you are interested in obtaining information about the next retreat. These weekends merge creative thinking, wine tasting, and book consulting to help writers improve their ideas and transform their brilliance into a book, film script, or other forms of intellectual property.
