Details about Ghostwriting

Turn your ideas, expertise and voice into a professional written manuscript. Our ghostwriting process is interview-led and voice-matched, delivering a finished book for agents, publishers, or a direct launch.

Best for: Authors with the idea and the authority, but not the hours.

Turnaround: 3–6 months

Details about Developmental Editing

We assess your manuscript’s structure, pacing, plot logic, character arcs and overall story flow, then create a clear revision roadmap to help you strengthen the book from beginning to end.

Best for: Complete drafts that feel almost there, but not yet whole.

Turnaround: 3–6 weeks

Details about Line Editing

We refine rhythm, flow and clarity while preserving the unique voice that makes your writing yours. Every sentence gets the attention it needs without losing your style.

Best for: Structurally sound manuscripts ready for a polish of the prose.

Details about Copy Editing

We correct grammar, usage, consistency, and readability, ensuring your prose reads polished, confident and professional while preserving your voice.

Best for: Authors preparing a clean, correct manuscript for proofing.

Details about Proofreading

A meticulous final sweep for typos, punctuation, spacing, and consistency before your book reaches readers. We catch the small details that can slip through even after editing.

Best for: Finished, formatted files that are moments from publishing.

Thoria’s studio

Details about Alpha Reading

We assess your story, structure, pacing, and overall direction so you know what’s working and what may need attention before you go deeper into drafting.

Best for: Works in progress that need direction before more drafting.

Details about Beta Reading

See how your book lands with a target reader before it reaches the public. We evaluate pacing, character, tone, emotional impact, and overall reader’s experience, then deliver structured feedback in a clear reader report.

Best for: Near-final drafts you want pressure-tested before launch.

Details about Per-Chapter Evaluation

Not ready for a full manuscript? We’ll take a close look at a single chapter and provide focused feedback on its writing, pacing, structure, and overall impact.

Best for: Authors who want a read on one chapter before committing further.

Details about Book Cover Design

Your cover is the first thing readers see. We create genre-aware concepts and final artwork shaped around your story, target audience, and the look your book deserves, for both print and digital.

Best for: Authors who know a cover sells the book before the blurb does.

Details about Blurb & Synopsis

Your book deserves more than a summary. We write compelling back-cover blurbs and publisher-ready synopses that capture the heart of your story, create curiosity, and give readers a reason to keep reading.

Best for: Books ready to be pitched, listed, or sold.

Details about Content Pull & Hooks

We pull the strongest lines, loglines, first-line hooks, quotes, and scroll-stopping extracts directly from your manuscript, then shape them into ready-to-use launch and social media content.

Best for: Authors heading into a launch who need ready-to-post copy.

Details about Book Formatting

Typography and interior layout designed to make your manuscript feel like a finished book. We format your interior for KDP, IngramSpark, and Apple Books, with files prepared for print, eBook, and PDF.

Best for: Edited manuscripts ready to become a real, finished book.

Mave & Thoria, together

Details about Self-Publishing Assistance

The launch, handled together. Mave safeguards the files and metadata while Thoria shapes the positioning: KDP setup, distribution strategy, and a launch plan for a confident indie release.

Best for: Finished books that need a real, well-planned release.

How payment works

Email or WhatsApp us what you need, and we’ll send a fixed-price proposal within 24 hours. Nothing is charged until you accept it; you then have 14 days to change your mind. A 30% booking payment, part of your price, reserves your start date; the rest is paid in stages or on completion. Book coaching is paid month by month. The full terms are in our Refund Policy.

What you can count on

No hourly billing, no surprise charges and no hidden line items, whatever you book. Every project includes up to 2 rounds of revisions free of charge. Any further round is priced by the length of your manuscript and the type of service, and we quote it before we start. Every line edit and copy edit comes with a style sheet, a tracked-changes file and a clean copy. For book coaching, what a month includes is agreed with you and set out in writing before your first payment.

Confidentiality

An NDA is available and required before any ghostwriting brief. Your manuscript is never used as a sample, portfolio piece, or promotional material without your written permission.

Not sure which service is right for your book?

Send us two chapters. Our free sample edit gives you a clear, honest assessment of where your manuscript stands and which editing stage makes the most sense for it.

Pricing and process

How much does ghostwriting or book editing cost?

Starting rates for every service are published on our services page, along with pricing for our standard bundles. What the consultation determines is the scope: your manuscript’s length, condition, and the editing or writing passes it actually needs.

Can I see your work on my manuscript before I commit?

Yes, send us the first two chapters (3,000–4,000 words), and we’ll return a free sample edit within 48 hours. You’ll see real edits, notes and feedback. Your sample is covered by the same NDA-first policy as any paid project, so your work stays yours.

How long will my project take?

Timelines depend on the service, manuscript length, and project scope. As a general guide, proofing takes 1–2 weeks, a full developmental edit takes 3–6 weeks, and ghostwriting takes 3–6 months depending on length and research. Your proposal will include a clear, committed timeline before you pay anything.

What happens on the free call?

Thirty minutes, no scripts. You tell us about your book, where you are in the process, and what you want to achieve. We listen, ask the questions that matter, and within 24 hours, you’ll receive a written proposal outlining the scope, timeline, and fixed quote. There’s zero obligation to continue.

Can I combine services however I like?

Yes, our price builder lets you select and combine services in any way that suits your book. Choose developmental editing and a cover, beta reading and a blurb, or any other combination. Need something that isn’t listed? Request a custom package, and we’ll scope everything into one clear, fixed-price project.

How do payments work?

Email or WhatsApp us what you need, and we’ll send a fixed-price proposal within 24 hours. Nothing is charged until you accept it; you then have 14 days to change your mind. A 30% booking payment, part of your price, reserves your start date; the rest is paid in stages or on completion. Book coaching is paid month by month. Read the Refund Policy.

When is the rest due?

Your proposal sets the schedule: a payment at each milestone, a fixed amount every week or every two weeks for the work done, or one payment on completion. Milestone and completion payments fall due when you approve the work, or when its review period (the days your proposal gives you to look it over) ends without a concern from you. Paying in stages costs nothing extra. Read the Refund Policy.

How many revisions are included?

Every project includes up to 2 rounds of revisions free of charge. Any further round is priced by the length of your manuscript and the type of service, and we quote it before we start. Nothing extra is added without your yes. Read the Terms.

Can I change my mind, or cancel before my start date?

Yes. In the 14 days after you accept your proposal, you can change your mind and get your money back, apart from paying for any work you asked us to start early. After that, we keep 6% of the total fee if your start date is 14 or more days away, or 10% if it is closer (never more than our actual loss if you live in the UK or the EU), and refund the rest. Your proposal prints each date. Read the Refund Policy.

Can you start at short notice?

Yes, whenever we have room, and starting soon costs nothing extra. To start within 14 days of accepting your proposal, tick the box on it asking us to begin early; otherwise we start once those 14 days end. Within those 14 days, cancelling is free until work begins, and after that you pay only for the work done. Read the Refund Policy.

Can I move my start date?

Yes, once and free of charge, with at least 7 days’ notice, to a new date within 12 months of the original. Your booking payment carries over in full, and the 6% and 10% periods count from the new date; your 14 days to change your mind still count from the day you accepted. For another move, or at shorter notice, just ask. If your start date falls within your first 14 days, your free move needs no notice, as long as you make it before those days end and before work begins. Read the Refund Policy.

What if I stop part-way?

Once work has started, you pay for the work done by the day you tell us or, after your first 14 days, 10% of the total fee if that is more. We refund the rest, nothing more falls due, and the work so far is yours. Read the Refund Policy.

What if you have to cancel?

If we ever have to cancel, or move your start date to one that doesn’t suit you, we refund what you’ve paid for work not yet delivered, in full, with nothing deducted. If you’d rather go ahead, we’ll offer you a new date instead. Read the Refund Policy.

How do I cancel, and how are refunds paid?

Email us at [email protected], reply to any of our emails, or send us a WhatsApp message. It takes effect the day you send it, and we confirm the amount and date of your refund. Every refund is sent within 7 days, to the card or account you paid with, and is the amount we actually received: payment-provider fees and any tax or government charge taken from your payment on its way to us are not returned, unless the law where you live requires a full refund or we are the ones who cancel. Charges applied when you receive the refund are outside our control. Your bank may take 5 to 10 business days to show it. Read the Refund Policy.

Book coaching

What is book coaching?

One-on-one support while you write the book yourself: coaching calls to plan and troubleshoot, a clear book plan with a chapter-by-chapter outline, a personalised writing schedule, honest feedback on your pages, and check-ins by email. It costs $300/month. How many months depends on the length of your book and how long you want support. Your story, your voice and your creative decisions stay entirely your own. See what’s included.

How is book coaching paid, and can I stop at any time?

Coaching is $300/month, with no booking payment and no minimum term. Your first payment books it, and 14 days before each new month we email you a payment request. To stop, leave it unpaid or tell us at any time; your coaching ends with the month you’ve paid for. We never store your card or charge it automatically. In Quebec, each month is paid once it has begun. Read the Refund Policy.

Can I get a refund on coaching?

Yes. Cancel within 14 days of paying for a month and that payment is refunded, less a share for days already given if you asked us to start early. After that, a month under way runs to its end, but we refund the unused part if we miss what we owe you or end your coaching, or if serious illness, bereavement or a loss of income stops you. Read the Refund Policy.

What if I miss or need to move a coaching call?

You can move a call free with at least 24 hours’ notice; times are always shown in your own time zone. A call cancelled later, or missed without letting us know for more than 10 minutes, counts as held, though one late move a month is fine and anything urgent never counts against you. If we cancel or are more than 10 minutes late, you get a replacement call. Read the Refund Policy.
