Hiring a Memoir Ghostwriter

                 Have you lived a life which merits a memoir? Perhaps you have risen from poverty to riches, or have accomplished a first you want people to be aware of, or you wish to celebrate memories from a lost world from a bygone era. These are great reasons for writing a memoir, but the task can be a bit daunting and even impossible for some. Perhaps you have started to write and are lost in the shaping of an intdresting memoir. Or, maybe your schedule is so busy you hardly have enough time to devote to writing a memoir. If you have tried your hand at writing, and feel it is too hard, time-consuming, or that the learning curve is just too steep, you may want to consider hiring a memoir ghostwriter. A ghostwriter can assist you throughout the entire process and write the book according to your instructions.

Isn't Ghostwriting like Cheating
                Even with these positives it is not unusual to have reservations, doubts and questions regarding hiring a ghostwriter. You may ask yourself, 'Isn't making use of a ghostwriter a little bit like cheating?" Not really. It's no different than making use of a carpenter to construct your house or having a plumber to fix the bathroom. The ghostwriter you hire is a professional with book writing experience and who isn't daunted by the idea of organizing years of scattered and oftentimes contradictory material into a cohesive and interesting memoir. You hire all kinds of professionals to carry out work for you. Why not choose the services of a ghostwriter who can develop a great memoir-your memoirs? They can make your dream of passing on your story a reality.

Will the Ghostwriter Get My Life Right?
                   You may like the concept of a ghostwriter, but wonder, "How will someone else get my life story right?" Remember, the ghostwriter does not go off and create a fictional life for you. It is your story, and you work together with the ghostwriter to collaborate. Most often this is done by phone. Along with this, you will turn over copies of relevant notes, photocopies of letters and journals, photos, and perhaps a copy of your previous endeavors at memoir writing.

                   As the "author" you line up interviews with people you know to ensure that the ghostwriter gets a broad spectrum view of both you and your life. A ghostwriter provides drafts of the memoir as the writing progresses, and you as the author should review them for accurately and will note changes needed. Together, the author and ghostwriter work through the manuscript to make changes. The author has the final say.
