Hey there! :) My name is Betty! And since I don't want to bore you with how I got here, let me then show you why you should hire me to create bestsellers for you! 1. I have been ghostwriting for 6 years! 2. I have written over 70+ books. These books have ranged from 10k-100k words. That's to show I can handle big projects. 3. I am a reader first. I love romance and because I read it, I understand how to take a plot summary and bring it to life with fully fleshed-out characters, compelling arcs, swoon-worthy tension, and emotionally satisfying endings. 4. I have a huge understanding of how to weave in bestselling tropes . For instance, some tropes need to appear right on the first paragraph, and they need to WOW the reader from the get go. 5. I am well versed in plotting original storylines. And when I plot a story I make sure: -I have a plot that drives both characters. - I have developed and relatable characters. -The emotional arcs in the book are always intensified. An example of this is if the relationship between the FMC and the MMC has an enemy to lovers trope, then the hate has to be believable as the love to hook the readers. -The twists and turns are there so as not to make the book predictable to the reader. 6. I am familiar with the following sub-genres: Steamy Contemporary, Dark Romance, Mafia including Bratva, College Romance, Sports Romance, Billionaire Romance, Clean, Omegaverse, Reverse Harems, Paranormal, Small Town, Cozy Romance and even romantic thrillers! To add, these are some of the tropes I've worked with: -Billionaire. -Secret Romance. - Friends to Lovers. -Enemies to Lovers. -Happily ever after. -Small Town -Office Romance. -Fake Relationship -Secret Baby -One Night Stand -Grumpy/ Sunshine -Second Chance -Best Friend Scenarios -Arranged Marriage -Fated Mates -Cursed Mates -Rejected Mates - Age Gap I assure you that I can deliver on time with excellent results. I have a remarkable turnaround and I can guarantee that my work for you will be meticulous and well delivered. I can't wait to work for you. Have a good one! :)

Launching a great book is only half the battle. The real challenge is getting it into the hands of the right readers, reviewers, influencers, and media outlets to create momentum before, during, and after publication. That's where I come in. I help authors, publishers, coaches, and thought leaders plan and execute strategic book launch campaigns that increase visibility, generate reviews, build credibility, and create lasting reader engagement. Whether you're a debut author or an established expert, I provide the structure and execution needed to turn a launch into sustained momentum. Pre-Launch * ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) recruitment and coordination * BookTok and Bookstagram influencer research and outreach * Podcast guest outreach and booking * Blogger, newsletter, and media outreach * Launch team and street team development * Reader and community research * Launch timeline and campaign planning * Email list growth strategies and lead magnet promotion Launch Period * Review generation and follow-up management * Influencer campaign coordination * Outreach to educators, organizations, bookstores, and aligned communities * Partnership and collaboration opportunities * Social media support and launch visibility initiatives * CRM management and outreach tracking * Personalized email outreach and relationship management Post-Launch * Long-tail promotional campaigns * Podcast and media opportunities * Community engagement and audience expansion * Ongoing influencer partnerships * Review monitoring and reader follow-up * Strategic outreach to keep the book visible long after release My approach is built on precision, not volume. I research the right audiences, tailor messaging to each opportunity, and maintain organized systems that ensure no relationship falls through the cracks. I don't rely on generic mass emails. I focus on thoughtful outreach that leads to genuine conversations and meaningful placements. I've supported launches across nonfiction, personal development, devotionals, memoirs, and fiction, helping authors connect with readers through ARC campaigns, podcast appearances, creator partnerships, review teams, and targeted outreach. My experience includes working with debut authors as well as established professionals looking to amplify their books and personal brands. Tools: Apollo, Notion, Airtable, Google Workspace, ConvertKit, Beehiiv, Canva, CRM systems, AI-assisted research tools, and advanced outreach workflows. If you're looking for someone who can bring strategy, organization, and hands-on execution to your book launch, I'd love to help you build momentum before launch, maximize visibility during release week, and keep your book working for you long after publication.

I will write 15K words per week, and produce original, error-free, humorous, and never-been-shared-before contemporary romance novels at $0.015 per word. Once we agree on the novel idea and tropes, I will create the characters, the plot, the chapter breakdown, and the blurb. Every week, I will write at least 15 000 words and submit the milestones on time. Only you will own the copyrights to the work and I will sign an NDA to that effect. I can write a box set or a standalone novel of 50 to 90K words or more as you wish. This year alone, I have written 6 books of 60K words each for clients and for my own Kindle account. I am always available online throughout the process. I have a degree in Journalism from the United States International University - Africa. If you hire me today, you will have your book within 6 weeks.
