What These Offers Do Not Include

Every Speak Your Book offer produces a developmental manuscript, not a finished book. A developmental manuscript is a complete, organized draft ready for the next professional stage.

Publishing production, copyediting, proofreading, cover design, interior formatting, Amazon setup, and literary representation are separate services provided by publishing professionals of your choosing. Speak Your Book does not offer or manage these services.
