SERVICES
The Fourth Elle Editorial Agency provides professional ghostwriting, editing, and writing coaching services tailored to support authors at every stage of the writing process. Learn more about each service and how we can help bring your manuscript to its highest potential.
Ghostwriting
Your story. Your voice. My pen.
Ghostwriting is for those who have something meaningful to say but need help shaping it into a compelling manuscript. Whether you're writing a memoir, a reflective nonfiction work, or a personal narrative, I’ll work with you to bring clarity, structure, and momentum to your ideas.
The Process
We begin with conversation — recorded interviews, informal discussions, and a review of any materials you’ve already created. Together, we map out your vision, clarify your audience, and develop a chapter-by-chapter outline that serves as the spine of the book.
Once the outline is in place, I begin writing the manuscript in sections, submitting drafts for your review and feedback as we go. You will have space to respond, reshape, and reflect throughout the journey — from the first chapter to the final edit. I handle drafting, revisions, and copyediting to ensure the final manuscript reflects your voice, your message, and your values.
A full project typically takes six months from start to finish, though timelines may shift depending on your availability, goals, and desired depth.
Pricing
Ghostwriting projects begin at $45,000, with final costs dependent on the scope and needs of your manuscript. Please contact me to discuss your project and receive a tailored quote.
Editing
Refine your manuscript without losing your voice.
Whether your book is in its earliest draft or nearly complete, editing ensures your words land with clarity, consistency, and intention. I offer comprehensive editorial services — including developmental editing, line editing, and copyediting — for full-length manuscripts in nonfiction, memoir, and personal narrative.
While I specialize in full-length manuscripts, I also edit shorter works such as articles, essays, and personal statements on a case-by-case basis.
The Process
We will begin with a review of your manuscript and a conversation about your goals, audience, and concerns. From there, I will recommend the editorial approach that best suits your project — whether it's big-picture structural editing or fine-tuning sentence-level flow and style.
Edits are returned in sections using Track Changes, allowing you to review and respond as we go. Most projects involve one to two rounds of revision, tailored to your preferences and publishing plans.
Pricing
Editing is billed at $0.85 per word, with the total cost determined by manuscript length and depth of edit. Please contact me for a personalized quote or to inquire about shorter-form work.
Writing Coach
You are the writer. I help you stay the course.
This service is for writers who want to tell their own story but need structured guidance to move from idea to execution. Whether you are just starting your manuscript or stuck midway through, I offer editorial mentorship, strategic planning, and accountability to help you bring your book to life together.
The Process
We begin with a consultation to assess your project’s goals, progress, and roadblocks. From there, I design a custom support plan that may include outlining, writing schedules, chapter-by-chapter feedback, editorial reviews, and regular check-ins. The process is flexible, but intentional. It is designed to keep you writing, revising, and moving forward with clarity and confidence.
Our sessions are structured but collaborative. I provide professional feedback on your pages, help troubleshoot creative and structural challenges, and support you in building writing habits that suit your lifestyle and goals.
Pricing
Writing support packages begin at $12,000, with scope and pricing determined by the level of involvement, duration, and stage of your manuscript. Please contact me to discuss your project and explore the best path forward.
