GHOSTWRITING SERVICE

What “Ghostwriting” Means to Us

“Ghostwriting” means that we take your thoughts, ideas, and experiences and present them — in your voice and under your name — in book or memoir form to readers who are eager to learn from your insights and reflections.

Our motto is simple:
“You talk. We listen. We Write. You Review.”

To do this well and to arrive at a meaningful outcome — such as an inspiring personal memoir or compelling business success story — requires us to be natural listeners and careful scribes. And it requires you to be fully engaged in sharing your stories and helping us draw out your insights and lessons-learned.

Our Process

1.     Initial Conversation
We begin with a complimentary 30-minute consultation to assess fit—chemistry, values, objectives, and timelines. We respect your schedule and are happy to meet evenings or weekends.

2.     Deep-Dive Conversations
If we move forward together, we typically schedule in-person conversations to build rapport and get to know you and your story quickly. We come to you, and sessions are spread over multiple days.

3.     Structure & Writing
We head home to reflect on our discussions, propose a chapter outline, and begin writing once approved.

4.     Collaborative Check-Ins
We check in at intervals that suit your preferences—every few chapters or after a full draft—without burdening you with unnecessary reviews.

5.     Polish & Publication Readiness
After you review the full first-draft in-detail and provide your comments and revisions, we refine the manuscript and prepare it for publication.

6.     Path to Publication

If you pursue traditional publishing, your agent or publisher typically takes over at this stage.

If you choose self-publishing, we can assist through the publication process in a variety of ways.

7. You’re an author!

Our Ghostwriting Service is designed to help thoughtful leaders go from idea to finished manuscript as efficiently—and painlessly—as possible.

Here’s how we do that.

The Result

You become a published author.

Your authority grows.

Your brand strengthens.

Your ideas reach farther.

Readers benefit from your insight. Aspiring leaders learn from your experience. And you leave behind a body of work that continues to guide others long after the book is written.

"I am very thankful for the opportunity that Michael presented to me, guided me through, and with the end result of his efforts. Michael is a wonderful writer and a better person. He took my stories and used his method of extracting the important information and writing it down in an eloquent manner, drawing my thoughts out as principles, themes, and "lessons."
