Enigma Book Publishers: ghostwriting and publishing support for aspiring authors

Enigma Book Publishers presents itself as a professional book writing company that helps authors turn ideas into finished, publishable manuscripts. Its stated offer covers the full path from concept to release: ghostwriting, editing and proofreading, cover design, formatting, publishing and marketing. The company describes itself as award-winning and says it has helped more than 385 authors become best-sellers, a figure drawn from its own promotional material.

The service is aimed at people who have a story or an idea but struggle to develop it into a manuscript, as well as at authors who want a team to handle production and release. Enigma states that it has worked with a diverse clientele from around the world and that its writers come from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds, including business, the arts, sciences, technology, advertising, communications, social sciences and engineering.

Writing services across genres

The company lists a broad catalogue of writing work rather than a single specialism. Its menu of services includes:

• Ghostwriting
• Biography and memoir writing
• Fiction writing, including action-adventure and military fiction
• Non-fiction and informative writing
• Children's book and story book writing
• Comic writing, rhyme writing and song writing
• Screenplay writing and audiobook production
• eBook writing

Beyond the manuscript itself, Enigma offers book editing and developmental editing, proofreading, book cover design, children's book illustration, eBook cover design, book formatting, book publishing and book marketing. It also mentions book trailer production.

A five-stage production process

Enigma describes a five-step process it calls value-driven. It begins with concept intake: after an order is submitted, an agent contacts the client to learn about the concept, plot and other details, and the team then assigns a writer suited to the project. The writer produces an outline, which the client approves before drafting starts.

Writing then proceeds chapter by chapter. The first chapter is drafted from the approved outline and sent for feedback and approval; revisions are made where requested, and the writer continues with subsequent chapters in the same way. Once the manuscript is complete, editors proofread and edit it for grammar, punctuation, plot, structure and flow, and the final version is returned with any last client edits incorporated.

Formatting follows, covering font size, margins, heading styles, tables and graphs, with illustrations added where relevant and a cover designed for the manuscript. The final stage is publication: the company states that it prints and publishes the book online and in stores, and can also market and promote it.

Publishing channels and distribution

The site names several retail and distribution platforms through which authors can sell their books with Enigma: Barnes and Noble, Apple Books, Lulu, Google Play Books, Kobo and IngramSpark. The company presents publishing as one part of a wider package rather than a standalone service.

How the company describes its writers

Enigma attributes its differentiation to the profile of its writing staff. It says its writers are experienced and skilled, that each book project receives a customised approach, and that clients work with a dedicated project manager throughout. It also highlights thorough research before content is produced, an initial outline stage, in-depth conversations with clients about their book, and a commitment to original content. The company describes its output as high-quality writing and editing delivered at competitive pricing and on schedule, claims that reflect its own marketing rather than independently verified figures.

Client feedback shown on the site

The website reproduces testimonials from authors. One describes a five-year memoir project completed with the company's help; another praises the creativity of the writers and the affordability of the service; a third highlights the experience of the assigned writers. These are individual accounts presented by the company and are not presented here as a general assessment of its work.

Contact and location

Enigma Book Publishers operates the domain enigmabookpublishers.co.uk and gives a UK telephone number. Its own text also describes the company as "based in USA", a statement that conflicts with the UK domain and phone prefix; the site does not provide a postal address to resolve the discrepancy.
