Most providers offer light proofreading or basic spellcheck. We offer full-spectrum editorial work. We fix narrative flow, tighten language, and enforce consistency from start to finish. We focus on how to get a book professionally edited, so your readers stay hooked and your reviews stay glowing.
When you choose Ghost Book Writers, you invest in a proven process: a deep diagnostic review, where we identify structural gaps, pacing lags, and voice inconsistencies. Then, let’s not forget our clear plan of execution because we outline exactly what you need: developmental edits, line editing vs. copy editing, or final proofreading. Most importantly, we adhere to direct collaboration protocols so your dedicated editor stays in touch, answers questions, and implements feedback fast. Cheap services promise low rates, then cut corners. We’re affordable as we keep costs transparent and deliver results. You’ll never wonder if your book is actually improving. Instead of squandering your valuable time editing your book yourself, which in the vast majority of cases is not possible, employ our highly qualified book editors to assist you in fulfilling your dream to become an author earlier than you expected.

Get a quick quote. See our sample edits. Decide with confidence.
We start by reading your entire manuscript, so we know exactly where it shines and where it stalls.
Skip the stress, our editors tackle structure, clarity, grammar, and layout. You focus on your vision. We polish the rest. No hidden fees. You get straight-up pricing that matches the service.
Deadlines matter. Our team turns work around fast without cutting corners. You set the tone and standards. We follow your direction and make your book sing. Every project is different. Pick what you need. We deliver.
Our affordable book editing services include developmental editing, where we fix plot holes, tighten pacing, and reorder chapters for maximum impact; line editing to sharpen phrasing and flow; copy editing to clean up grammar, punctuation, and style; proofreading for one last sweep of typos, formatting hiccups, and stray errors; formatting and prep with print ready layouts and eBook files that upload without a hitch; and cover and metadata advice to nail your title, blurbs, keywords, and category so your book stands out. We handle a range of genres, from historical fiction and romance to flash fiction and anime fan fiction.
Send your draft. We read it end to end. We score focus, pacing, and consistency. We deliver a clear edit proposal with cost and timeline.
We break down tasks: developmental, line, copy, proof. You choose what fits your goals and budget.
Your dedicated editor tackles each phase. We use tracked changes and comments so you see every fix and suggestion.
You review edits. You ask questions. Two rounds of revisions are included—so you stop only when everything reads right.
You get a professionally edited, publication-ready manuscript. Clean Word document. eBook conversion. Print-ready PDF.
We guide you through the process of getting your files uploaded to both sites, metadata optimization (keywords, categories, and ISBN), and your book on the appropriate shelves. You get step-by-step guidance until your title is up and searchable.
Email us your draft or sample pages. We perform a free diagnostic and show you exactly how to get a book professionally edited, with a clear plan and quote.
Think about where your manuscript struggles most. If the story feels scattered or the ideas jump around, start with developmental. If your scenes flow but the prose trips you up, line editing smooths it out. And if you just want clean grammar and consistent style, copy editing is your friend.
Once we’ve scoped your project after the review, a typical 70,000 word manuscript goes through all phases in about 4–6 weeks. We give you a delivery date up front, and we stick to it unless you ask for extra work.
Absolutely. We encourage quick check ins. Whether you have a question about a note in the margin or want to talk tone, you can send a message and your editor will respond within 24 hours.
We make your edits directly in the document. You see every change in tracked edits and comments. If you’d rather learn the why behind each suggestion, just ask. We’ll explain every tweak so you own the process.
You get a final pass for proofreading and formatting so your file is ready to upload. We also share a quick reference on how to prep your Word or InDesign file for Amazon, IngramSphere, or any other platform you choose.
