It?s the nature of memoir to be full of ghosts from the past. But this discussion is about a ghost in the present. Ghostwriter, that is.

You, your family, or your ancestors have a great story, one that will resonate with many people. Yet you know that writing a book is tough, and you?re not sure you can do it. You probably have good reasons for this belief, such as:

• You are not a writer. Maybe you are inexperienced, or simply not confident in your writing skills.

• You hate to write. You would rather clean the toilet than write.

• You haven?t got the time to write a whole book. After all, you have a job, a family, a life.

But that story is screaming to be told! What can you do? Answer: Hire a ghost.

?

In this one-hour discussion you will learn:

• How a ghostwriter does what she/he does ? the ghostwriting process.
• What your role is in this process.
• How a ghostwriter can ?sound? like you. (A ghostwriter is rather like an actor, just on the page instead of the stage.)
• What a ghostwriter might cost you, and how long it might take her/him to write your book.
• Who owns the book/copyright, and how to make sure it?s you.

?

Along the way, I?ll share some tips on writing memoir, such as:

• How to identify likely readers, and then grab them.
• How to choose a theme for the memoir.
• What to include in your memoir, and what to leave out
