Authors Speak

Trusted by the writers behind the books.

First-time memoirists, CEOs, and career novelists here's what they say about publishing with NexGen.

Good Questions

Everything authors ask us first.

Straight answers before you ever sign a page.

You do completely. Every contract assigns 100% of copyright, royalties, and creative control to you. We work for hire; your name is the only one on the cover.

Editing-to-publication typically runs 6–10 weeks. A full ghostwritten book usually takes 4–6 months depending on length and review speed. You'll receive a milestone timeline before we begin.

Never. Every engagement is protected by a mutual NDA. Ghostwriting is a standard practice throughout the publishing industry your confidentiality is absolute.

We distribute to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, IngramSpark, and through Ingram's network of 40,000+ bookstores and libraries worldwide in print, eBook, and audio.

As much as you want to be. Some clients review every chapter; others check in at milestones. Your project manager adapts the workflow to your schedule and style.

Editing-and-publishing packages start at $1,495; full ghostwriting engagements are quoted per project after a free consultation. Payment plans are available on every package.
