You clicked “Order.” Now what?
From that moment to the day you hold your book, here's what happens behind the scenes.
Order confirmation
Within moments you receive an email with your order details — format, shipping address, and a confirmation number. Nothing is left to chance.
Book generation
Full prose is written from the outline you approved. Every chapter, every scene. The AI follows your character details and genre. This typically takes about 48 hours.
Quality review
Before anything goes further, we check layout, formatting, and cover alignment. The goal is a book that looks and reads like something from a real publisher.
Digital delivery
If you ordered a digital copy, your PDF arrives via email within roughly 48 hours of your order. You can read it immediately, share it, or keep it as a backup.
Printing
Physical copies go to a professional printer. Premium paper, proper binding. Printing takes about five business days. No shortcuts.
Shipping
We ship within the US. Standard is free and arrives in 11–14 days. Priority costs $10 and arrives in 9–12 days. Express costs $15 and arrives in 6–9 days.
It arrives
The book arrives in a box. It has weight. A spine. A cover with their name or your chosen design. It looks like a real book because it is one.
