Claim honesty
- Prices are CAD list prices for commissioned work, not Amazon retail ebook prices.
- Word counts are targets and ceilings for the paid scope, not guarantees of a finished retail listing on any store.
- Revision rounds mean structured passes after a draft delivery, not unlimited same day rewrites.
- Any topic, genre, or manuscript type is welcome when it is legal and you have the rights to tell it.
- Web tiers undercut typical agency quotes for small Canadian shops. They do not include paid ads management, custom app stores, or ongoing SEO retainers unless written in the quote.
- Stripe checkout on Shop lite requires your Stripe account. Phyllux does not hold your customer money.
- AI assisted drafting may be used in the workshop. You own the brief, decisions, and final keeper sign off. We will not claim pure human only authorship if tools helped.
- Coming soon catalog titles on this site are concepts and covers in progress, not available purchases until status says otherwise.
- Turnaround depends on queue and your feedback speed. Rush is only the Spark add on listed below unless we agree in writing.
