About Inkwell & Cole

Two former editors who kept meeting brilliant speakers stuck at a blank page.

We spent years ghostwriting for executives who were brilliant in a room and paralysed in front of a blank page. So we built a studio around getting those books written.

Founders and experts with a book in them

How we think

Three things we will not skip.

Structure before draft

The chapter-by-chapter plan is signed off before a word of the manuscript is written. It is the step that saves months.

Your voice, on its best day

We draft, you mark it up, we revise. Two full passes are standard, and a third if the voice is not right yet.

Your name, not ours

No byline, no royalties, and we do not talk about whose book we wrote.

Working with us

We only take nonfiction.

Business, memoir-adjacent and expertise-led books. If you have a novel, we are the wrong people and will say so quickly.

If the year is full, we will say so on the call rather than after it.

In their words

  • Demo review

“I’d been talking about writing this book for six years. Inkwell & Cole had a finished manuscript out of me in four months, and it still sounds like me.”
