Wonderful team at The Urban Writers!

As a 'brand-new' author, TUW was the perfect solution to fine-tune my manuscript to an extraordinary final book. As this is the first volume of an 11-volume series, I look forward to utilizing their services throughout the completion of my series.

Urban Writers- High Standards- Delivered!

I knew that Urban Writers had high standards going in, and that's why I chose them. They delivered. My ghostwriter could not have been better. She was thoroughly engaged with the project and the characters, adding an extra dimension to the work. She also listened to my suggestions and was easy to communicate with. Using Urban Writers helped make the process of choosing a ghostwriter easy and offered plenty of choices. I will definitely use them to continue my series!

They are an amazing team

Well, my first book has just been published and it was quite the process. I am 73 and Computers for Dummies is like getting a PH D. I can't express enough gratitude for The Urban Writers for all their help from start to finish. They assisted me on how to choose writers and designers. They helped me through all my mistakes with patience and no judgments. If I could go back and dedicate the book to them I would. They are an amazing team.

Their team of freelancers helped produce best selling books

TUW plagiarism pro service is top notch. They are thorough and give clear direction to keep me as a writer and publicist out of trouble. The editors have been diligent and attentive to detail. The illustrator and recent book cover designer have also been a joy to have on the project. I have enjoyed working with these professionals. When there is a problem, customer support has been responsive and informative. I try to be proactive with questions to make sure I understand the work I should expect before I am deep in the project. Overall it has been a pleasant experience and We have produced some top selling books which Is the goal all along.

"Collaborating with Publishers and writers

The in person involvement with my projects
"I had the opportunity to collaborate closely with publishers and writers while working on my book, Man Up and Stand on Your Own. This experience allowed me to gain a deep understanding of the publication process, from initial manuscript submission to final production. I worked alongside editorial teams to refine content, ensuring the messaging aligned with the book's theme of mastering modern manhood. Additionally, I coordinated with marketing and design teams to develop a cohesive strategy for promoting the book to develop a cohesive strategy for promoting the book to its target audience.

To be honest I was so grateful when you…

To be honest I was so grateful when you let me know the writer I had chosen and was using had plagiarised some of her work which then gave me the opportunity to choose an excellent writer whom I'm very happy with. It held up the process for awhile but was worth it in the end.
