I've been working with people since 1988 to turn memories into memoirs.

You have a story to share with the world--or with family and friends--and you need help. You need a ghostwriter: a professional writer who can craft your story the way a builder uses your vision to build your house.

Some clients already have a rough draft, a folder of notes, a list of names and dates--or nothing on paper at all. Whatever your starting point, the end result is the book you dream of.

When I co-author with you, I provide my technical skill and writer's sensibility. You provide the details of your lifestory you want to share. The story of your life and/or work unfolds as we meet by telephone and I craft your answers to my questions into a unified whole. Together we make your story into a book.

When it is finished, it will have your voice and your message. It will be your book.

Co-authoring is the answer. Why not call me today to discuss your project?

Co-authoring (Ghostwriting) is a good choice when--

You've got an idea for a book but don't know where to start.
You have neither the writing experience nor the energy and time to acquire the skills. Or perhaps you could write yourself but choose not to take on a major project alone.

You've tried to write your book but it's an overwhelming challenge.
You want to continue writing parts of it--vignettes, scenes--but need a professional writer who can weave your bits together to create a coherent and interesting manuscript that conveys your world view and themes.

You've written a lot already but you know it needs structural work--more than editing might provide. You're ready for your book to take its place in the world, but you've run out of energy to re-write and polish it, or don't know how to take it to the next stage.
