What is the difference between a biography and a memoir?

How long does the biography writing process take?
The length of our ebook ghostwriting services depends on numerous factors such as: how long the book is going to be, the expertise needed to write the book, how much research, if any, is required to write the book, and how often and timely can we go back and forth with the author, in the revisions and discussion phases. Typically, a draft takes 2-4 months to write, while a month for publishing.
How long should a biography book be?
Most biography books range between 40,000 and 80,000 words depending on the scope of the life story being told. A short professional biography or executive bio can be as brief as 1,000 to 5,000 words. Our professional biography writers will assess your story during the initial consultation and recommend the ideal length for your project.

You can choose book dimensions, font styles, page color (colored or black-and-white), and page quality. For cover design, you can share ideas and select glossy or matte materials. We also provide guidance on design preferences for self-publishing and traditional publishers.
How much does it cost to hire a biography writer?
