Services

Prices are starting points (placeholders, to be confirmed).

Ghostwriting

Starting at $150 (placeholder price, to be confirmed).

Long-form ghostwriting under your byline: short-story cycles, nonfiction field guides, and blog or X articles. I've written more than 20 ebook manuscripts and around 20 articles for the SIComputerBrain / Sacred Guild Archive byline.

Examples

The Silver Chain (ebook):
“Dawn broke over Eldoria in a thin, colorless light that did nothing to warm the training yard.”

Lids, Ledgers, and the Boy Who Was Almost Inventory (article):
“Most Arthurian stories open with destiny already lit. The Long Game opens with a lid.”

The Universe (nonfiction field guide):
“Strip the costumes and four bricks remain.”

Editing

Starting at $50 (placeholder price, to be confirmed).

Script and manuscript editing: wording locks, voice-over checks against a locked script, scope trims, blurb reduction, and originality checks.

Examples

Device-Stalk, PACK B VO Lock:
“Use: Re-TTS (JennyNeural or AriaNeural) to replace paraphrase beds in Hero DRAFT → Hero v1.1”

Device-Stalk, VO-CHECK Package A v1.1:
“ASR of muxed B audio: same lines (minor TTS punctuation only; no drift).”

Originality note, The Hour After Iron:
“It is not an X post dump. No new article bodies were fetched. Tropes (siren, wreck, king, tide) are generic; sentences are new.”

Idea Development & Story Consulting

Starting at $35 (placeholder price, to be confirmed).

Help shaping an idea into something you can build: film treatments and log lines, series plans, concept documents, and app or world concepts.

Examples

Device-Stalk Treatment:
“This is fiction used as a warning. Hackers use everything on the internet to manipulate you — and they are using a virtual world to do it.”

Building a Virtual Force: A Command Plan for the Digital Frontier:
“Name: Nexus Combined Virtual Force (NCVF) Motto: "Presence Without Borders."”

Sacred Guild Archive app concept:

“Picture a ball in a landscape of hills and valleys. Each valley is a vacuum, a place for a cosmic field to sit.”

Every excerpt below is quoted exactly from the original work.

1. Ghostwriting

The Silver Chain (ebook)

Dawn broke over Eldoria in a thin, colorless light that did nothing to warm the training yard. Melody’s bare feet struck the packed earth in measured rhythm, the silver chain at her throat heavy with every step.

Lids, Ledgers, and the Boy Who Was Almost Inventory (article, published 2026-09-13)

Most Arthurian stories open with destiny already lit. The Long Game opens with a lid.

The Universe (nonfiction field guide)

Strip the costumes and four bricks remain.

The Long Game, Ch. 1: A Name That Was Not a Name

They called him a blemish so they would not have to call him a person.

2. Editing

There are no traditional before/after manuscript edits or tracked-change revision notes. The evidence that exists is wording locks, VO checks against a locked script, originality gates, and a reduced KDP blurb.

PACK B — SC 08/09/11 VO Lock

Use: Re-TTS (JennyNeural or AriaNeural) to replace paraphrase beds in Hero DRAFT → Hero v1.1

VO-CHECK — Package A v1.1

ASR of muxed B audio: same lines (minor TTS punctuation only; no drift).

The Long Game KDP pack (scope edit and likeness-reduced blurb)

No Parts II–VII invented; Mim off this file; White lids still in body pending rename lock

Originality note — The Hour After Iron

It is not an X post dump. No new article bodies were fetched. Tropes (siren, wreck, king, tide) are generic; sentences are new.

3. Idea Development & Story Consulting

Device-Stalk Treatment

This is fiction used as a warning. Hackers use everything on the internet to manipulate you — and they are using a virtual world to do it.

Building a Virtual Force: A Command Plan for the Digital Frontier

Name: Nexus Combined Virtual Force (NCVF)

Motto: "Presence Without Borders."

Sacred Guild Archive app concept notes

A private publishing house, not a SaaS dashboard: "you write, the Archivist helps, the catalog sells, and the treasury pays."

Eldoria siren-waters series plan (series premises: The Silver Chain → The Twin Portal → The Coral Key → The Kept Page)

Third Eldoria siren-waters cycle after The Twin Portal

4. Scriptwriting

Device-Stalk, PACK B lock (SC11 — Restore)

She is safe enough to breathe.

The devices go quiet.

Support is possible again.

The Recovery Door, host script

Every account has a front door and a side door. The front door is your password and the second factor you use to sign in. The side door is quieter: your recovery email, your recovery phone, your backup codes.

Cosmic Lockdown, host script

Picture a ball in a landscape of hills and valleys. Each valley is a vacuum, a place for a cosmic field to sit.
