When working with big publishers, writers only receive a small fraction of the royalties from their book sales.
Our authors thought that this seemed unfair.
We agreed with them.
At Muse Literary, our team is made up of seasoned editors, writers, designers, and publishing professionals who bring both industry insight and creative passion to every project we touch. With backgrounds spanning traditional publishing houses, literary agencies, and independent creative studios, our team offers a depth of expertise that ensures each book meets the highest standards of quality.
But aside from experience, we bring heart—we are storytellers, wordsmiths, and book lovers who are genuinely invested in helping authors succeed. Whether we’re fine-tuning a manuscript, developing a cover concept, or guiding you through distribution strategy, our collaborative approach is rooted in a shared belief: that your story matters, and that it deserves to be published with care, purpose, and excellence.
Beyond traditional editorial and production services, we offer a comprehensive suite of additional support options to help authors refine, elevate, and successfully position their work. Whether you need ghostwriting to bring your ideas to life, additional developmental editing to enrich your manuscript, or organizational and structural guidance to strengthen your book’s foundation, our team is here to collaborate with care, precision, and intention.
