Ghostwriting
Preserve precious family memories for future generations, or build your brand with a business book.
Let Austin ghostwriter Jess Hagemann do all the work … so you can take all the credit!
New in 2019: Wedding Day Storytelling and Birth Stories services.
Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer.
EDITING & DESIGN
Cider Spoon Stories proofreads and line-edits fiction and nonfiction manuscripts, blogs, articles, web copy, screenplays, and more.
After your manuscript’s edited, it’s time to self-publish. Interior book layout, cover design, and ISBN registration available.
Kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your egocentric little scribbler’s heart, kill your darlings.
COACHING & CLASSES
When you’re ready to start a new writing project, or you get halfway and find yourself all-the-way stuck in the weeds, reach out for a high-powered brainstorming sesh.
Beginning, intermediate, and advanced writers: Jess also teaches in-person and online classes! Check out her schedule here.
One student, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.

GET INVOLVED (donate or intern!)
Every year, Jess partners with an Austin-area non-profit to highlight that organization’s mission and shares its clients’ stories. Shop local! Book proceeds benefit Hospice Austin, The SAFE Alliance, and C2 Change.
