01 / WRITING YOUR BOOK
From what’s in your mind
to what’s on the page.
You bring the experience, imagination or expertise. We help build the manuscript.
We work with authors who have a book idea, notes, a partial draft, or an existing manuscript that needs development. Together, we clarify your reader, the promise of your book and the structure that will carry it.
We can develop a full book manuscript for your review, then work through feedback and agreed revisions with you. You stay involved in the decisions that make the book yours.
- Book concept, reader and chapter planning
- Developing notes, ideas and drafts into a full manuscript
- Writing that respects your perspective and intended voice
- Author review, feedback and agreed rounds of revision
02 / PUBLISHING YOUR BOOK
A local beginning.
A world of possibility.
Help your manuscript take its place on the bookshelf.
We support authors in preparing and publishing books through Amazon, with ebook and paper-based editions for Australian and international markets.
From organising the manuscript and cover to preparing the book description and publishing details, we help you work through the practical steps to release.
- Ebook formatting and print interior preparation
- Cover preparation for the agreed editions
- Book description and publishing metadata support
- Amazon publishing setup and release assistance
Formats and marketplace availability depend on the book, rights, Amazon’s requirements and the release plan. We’ll agree the services, responsibilities and costs before work begins.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before the
first chapter.
Can you help if I only have an idea?
Yes. Start with a short description of your idea, who it is for and what you want the book to do. We can discuss planning and full manuscript writing for your review.
Can I review and update the writing?
Yes. Author review and agreed revisions are part of a collaborative writing project. We establish review points and revision scope before the work starts.
Can I use publishing support on its own?
Yes. If you already have a manuscript, contact us about preparing ebook and print editions and publishing through Amazon.
Do you work with authors outside Australia?
We welcome enquiries from authors in Australia and overseas. Tell us where you are based and the markets you want to reach so we can discuss a suitable project plan.
How much does it cost, and how long does it take?
That depends on the length, subject, starting material and services you need. We discuss your brief before providing a project scope, timing and fees.
Will publication guarantee sales?
No. Publishing makes a book available through the agreed channels. Reader demand, retailer acceptance and sales are not guaranteed.
