You’ll need a fully setup account (meaning you’ve completed all steps of the account setup process) and your book’s cover and interior files. You'll also need an ISBN for each format of your book if you'd like to make your book available for distribution. We can get your ISBN as you set up a title with us.
The main things you’ll need are a valid email address, signed agreements allowing us to print and distribute your book for you, and payment information so you can pay us to print and we can pay you for your book sales.
For print books, you need a PDF of the cover and a separate PDF of the interior content. Ebooks require an EPUB file of the interior content and a JPEG of the cover.
Please review our Terms and Conditions for details. We have strong policy of client confidentiality, and therefore before proceeding with any order, we make sure we have sent a legal binding contract and a non-disclosure agreement stating the services you are entitled to and the terms and conditions.
Feel free to pick and choose which services you want from us! You can get in touch with any of our online consultants who will guide you on the suitable service you need and the appropriate quotation.
We can definitely help with that! We offer consultation services to give input at whatever level of detail you’d like, whether feedback on the structure and concept of the book, critical review on the flow and transitions, or market-based recommendations.
Your level of involvement is entirely up to you. You can opt to work closely with your ghostwriter, or simply provide them with basic information and let them do the rest of the work. However, in an autobiography/memoir, it is highly recommended that you work side by side with your ghostwriter.
We do not entertain walk-in customers as we are a fully online business. However, we try to make the process as convenient for you as possible, with telephonic interviews and chat sessions. However, under certain situations, we can arrange meetings with clients if the order amount exceeds $30,000.
The duration of the Heritage Book Publishing process is partly up to you. Depending on your schedule and desired level of involvement, your ghostwriter will develop material for you to review and approve on a weekly or biweekly basis.
All applicants are screened and tested. Their credentials are checked. Writers and developmental editors need a track record of published books that they’ve written and edited. They have also signed NDAs to ensure that all orders we work on retain maximum confidentiality.
Yes, of course! Our services are 100% confidential. We will never use any of the information you provide us for any other purpose, nor will we use the writing developed for your book ever again. We have a very comprehensive privacy policy posted on our website, and we are also happy to send you a non-disclosure agreement.
Not at all. You are the sole author of your book, always.
At Heritage Book Publishing, we don’t claim any rights, ownership, or credit for the work we do behind the scenes. Whether your book becomes a bestseller or a quiet success, it’s 100% yours. You’ll never owe us credit or additional compensation, unless you personally choose to acknowledge us. The spotlight stays on you.
Absolutely (in either case). Any writer who has several legitimate negative feedback reports will be removed from the network. Note: An editor refusing to work without prepayment or to do free additional work (above and beyond the scope outlined in the agreement) are not legitimate complaints; an editor missing a contractual deadline or becoming unavailable is. Because of the ethical guidelines of this network and the collection of feedback from network clients, legitimate complaints have rarely occurred since the company was formed in 2014. Please let the network coordinator know about your experience with your editor(s).
Firstly, writing a solid book takes time and effort, so expect to invest real money. Cheap services often mean poor results. Always keep full rights to your book and never give up ownership!
Price factor:
To be very honest, developing a good book is not an easy task as it takes several days and a lot of hard work. So, keep in mind that it also needs a good sum of money. Don’t be coaxed by
affordable or third-rate ghostwriters.
Who owns the rights?
It’s your idea and your book, so don’t give your rights to ghostwriters because some of the writers ask for partial rights. Be aware of these kinds of writers and don’t give your rights to
anyone else.
Payment Arrangement:
Pay ghostwriters in installments. Pay only initial payment and pay the remaining amount if you feel satisfied with their work. So, contract a deal with the ghostwriter because it is the best
possible option to reduce the risk of scams or fraud.
Who is In-Charge?
If you are working with a ghostwriter, it is called as a collaborative work. However, make sure that he write content according to your requirement and you are the boss for adding or removing
content from the manuscript or book.
Should I opt a firm or freelancer?
We advise you to choose a firm because they are slightly trustworthy than freelancers. But, don’t forget that there are several qualified and reputable freelancers. Most of these freelancers
are overbooked so check their availability before hiring in order to decrease the future nuisance. With a firm such as ours, we ensure efficiency and deliver your project within the given time
period.
Reputation: Check the reputation of the writing service by evaluating their writers, editors, and connections. Make sure that they have already worked on this kind of matter in the past or not. Always protect yourself and make sure that you are working with a renowned freelancer or firm.
Our company provides ultimate convenience to our users and clients. Feel safe and free to choose our services because we accommodate our clients. We also reduce the rate if you only need fewer services.
No! You are 100% the author of your book. We do not retain any rights or ownership of your book whatsoever. Even if your book earns a million dollars, you will never owe us any credit or extra compensation unless you choose to do so.
Yes, absolutely. Your privacy matters deeply to us. Everything you share with Heritage Book Publishing is treated with the utmost confidentiality. We never share your work, ideas, or personal details with anyone. Our services are completely private, and we take your trust seriously. If you'd like extra peace of mind, we’re also happy to provide a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). You're in safe hands with us.
Well, it depends on the amount of your content and requirement. It is obvious a high-quality book takes hundreds of hours and several weeks. There are plenty of processes such as gathering of material, planning, writing sessions, and editing. A 200-page book will take 5-8 months to complete. However, we can expedite this process for additional payment.
Of course, yes. We will happily include and edit the content that you give, and it may also affect the quotation depending on the workflow.
If you are looking for someone to improve and provide feedback on your work, then our firm also provides these services. We have a qualified team of editors and senior editors who specialize in this and can give their precious opinion about your work.
Yes, we also offer research services to our clients. Our ghostwriting packages also include this service.
Generally, we are very good at matching users with the best writers for their book. We can, however, provide samples of our best ghostwriters for your satisfaction.
Firstly, we offer a preliminary review in which we provide you with comprehensive feedback on your manuscript. An editor reads your content thoroughly and then gives comments and recommendations about your material.

It depends on the level of your content and the clarity of your concept. Mostly, this question comes to our mind during the development stage of the manuscript. If you have a perfectly written manuscript, then you only need manuscript proofreading for the final polishing of your content. Heavy editing is great for initial drafts, quickly written or inexperienced authors.
Critical analysis and review are best for getting feedback or comments about your manuscript. In this way, you will get in-depth recommendations and guidance that help you in the development process. If you are looking for additional support or content, we also offer ghostwriting and rewriting services that add depth and remove flaws from your material.
Yes, we will love to implement changes and give feedback for additional improvement, but it all depends on you. Generally, we track all the edits and then correct the grammatical errors. This thing helps you identify the changes we made.
Yes, we absolutely can. And more importantly, we understand how personal this is. Writing a book is no small feat. You’ve already done the hard part: putting your heart on the page. Now it’s time to shape it into something that truly reflects your voice and potential. That’s where we come in.
A skilled editor isn’t just someone who catches grammar errors, they’re a creative partner. They help refine your ideas, highlight your strengths, and polish your manuscript with care. Whether you have a finished draft or just early material, we’ll give it a comprehensive review, addressing structure, clarity, tone, and those sneaky inconsistencies that are easy to overlook.
If you're aiming to publish traditionally, we also include free book proposals and customized query letters with many of our ghostwriting packages. And we don’t stop there, we’ll provide you with a curated list of literary agents who specialize in your genre, so you can send your work into the right hands with confidence.
Whether you're a seasoned writer or just starting out, we’re here to help you move forward with a team of experienced writers, editors, publishers, and marketers who care about your goals as much as you do.
We know publishing and marketing can feel overwhelming, especially when the landscape keeps changing. But you don’t have to face it alone.
Once your manuscript is complete, we’ll guide you through your publishing options, whether you're leaning toward traditional publishing, self-publishing, or a hybrid route. We’ll help you weigh the pros and cons, avoid common pitfalls, and make informed choices.
And when it’s time to share your book with the world, we’re still with you. We include query letters and book proposals in our ghostwriting packages at no extra cost, and we’ll walk with you step by step, helping you reach agents, publishers, and readers who are just waiting for your story.
The ebook-ready and print-ready files you need to distribute your book both online and in print.
You'll need to provide your final manuscript, the genre of your book, plus a rough idea of the styles you like so this can be incorporated into the design.
The price of your project will vary based on the number of words in your manuscript and the imagery (if any) you'd like to be included. Once you contact the designer, you'll be able to negotiate price before committing to the project.
This may vary slightly depending on the size of project. You can lock this down when discussing the project with your consultant.

Yes, you can send specific sections of your work to different agents and publishers. But, the most effective method is to send a modified proposal or customized query letter to more than one agent and publisher. It is necessary to clear the idea of your manuscript in your query letter to catch the attention of the publisher.
In self-publishing, we will guarantee that your book will be published. You will also get a copy of your book and we also submit it on Kindle, Amazon, and other eBook platforms for sale. In traditional publishing, we will support and guide you in this process by providing a comprehensive list of genre-appropriate publishers that help you publish your book and also take responsibility for marketing and distributing your book and you will easily get your goals but will not guarantee what the publishers responsibilities are.
Yes, absolutely. We will help you publish your book whether you want self-publishing or typical publishing. We assist our clients in every type of publishing such as traditional-publishing, eBook publishing, print on demand (POD) publishing.
In traditional-publishing, we will provide a list of publishing outlets and act as your literary agents. We will also work with our clients to develop a marketing strategy to attract buyers. In self-publishing such as soft or hard form, we will also guide you and offer the best available platforms. In the formatting and publishing process, we will always stand with our clients.
The book publishing process depends on the path you choose: traditional or self-publishing.
Traditional publishing involves finding a literary agent who pitches your manuscript to publishers. If accepted, a publisher buys the rights, manages editing, design, marketing, and distribution.
In contrast, self-publishing is quicker and more accessible. You format your book, design a cover, and upload it to a digital platform. You keep full rights and control, though you're also responsible for promotion and sales.
The big differences are control, cost, and time. Traditional publishing offers professional support and potentially wider reach but involves less creative control and slower timelines. Self-publishing gives you full freedom and quicker release but requires more personal effort in marketing.
To publish your book traditionally, you need to find a literary agent to send your query letter or proposal. According to some writers, you have to send your sample work to more than 80 literary agents to secure a literary agent!
This process is usually taxing and time-taking, but we can both help you develop a customized query letter and act as your literary agent to help you secure the publication deal.

Absolutely. We have more experience promoting self-published books than any other agency in the industry.
After years in the industry, we have access to the world's largest network of audiobook sellers. Being experienced in the distribution of audiobooks, we can certainly help you build a wider network and expand your revenue stream.
