Ghostwriting
First, what is a ghostwriter? A ghostwriter is someone who writes something for a client while the client gets credit for writing it. You may start thinking of high school, the smart kid that would do your English essays for you for a nominal fee. Or, maybe you were that kid, selling you skills in English. If that’s the case maybe you could be a ghostwriter. If you were in need of help then, maybe you are one that should hire a ghostwriter.
A ghostwriter can perform any writing service required. As long as you have an idea they have the time and skill. They do most if not all of the research, planning, and writing. The contracts define the individual ghostwriter’s terms, but on average they research, plan, write, and help during the editing process.
The payments are decided by each separate writer. Some add fees in for research hours. Some add fees for the publication it’s being submitted to. Still some use a flat rate for all works. It’s the writer’s choice but usually it can be negotiated.
Whether you need an annual report written up, or what’s to become a best selling nonfiction book, a ghostwriter can help you get there. For a nominal fee, and a few hours of interview time, you can be on your way to having that writing project done.
