Do you want or need to write for publication-but don't believe you have the time to do it right? I can help you. I'm not only a journalist: I'm also a first-rate ghostwriter. I'll write your article, book, or speech for you. If you prefer to do your own writing, but just want a second pair of eyes on the copy, you'll find I'm a useful editor as well.

Ghostwriting requires me to check my ego at the door-and that's just what I do. I've written books, articles, speeches, corporate brochures, personal letters, and blog material for various clients-and I'm always glad to let them take the credit.

My job is to help you tell your story-and to make you look as good as possible in the telling.

HAVE YOU GOT A BOOK IN YOU?

Almost everyone has. You might want to write a book for any number of reasons.

"I'm proud of my business, and I'd like to tell its whole story."

"A book would be a great marketing tool."

"I want to put my experiences and insights into one book that my grandchildren can go to for advice after I'm gone."

"I have a hobby that I'm passionate about-and I'd love to write the definitive book about it."

"Nobody else is likely to write the story of my life-so I'd better do it myself."

No matter how much you might want to write that book, you'll have reasons why you can't or won't do it.

"I have lots and lots of ideas-but I can't organize them!"

"I know more or less what I want to say, but I'm just not a writer."

"I'll never have the time to get around to it."

"I have a story to tell that's interesting to me-but how could I make it interesting to other people?"

To each of those objections, you might add, "If only I had a little help."

There's where I come in. I can help you tell your story.

I can do as much or as little of the work as you want me to do. If you'd like to just tell me your story, while I listen and take notes, I can do all the heavy lifting. I'll write the outline, do the supplementary research, organize the information and turn it into a book-length document. I'll arrange the editing, production, and marketing. Or, if you prefer to do most of the writing yourself, I can provide editing and consulting services-advising you, prodding you when you need to be prodded-but letting the book be entirely your work. In either case, the book will be yours, with your name on the cover.

WANT MORE ZING IN YOUR WEBSITE?

Maybe your company's Website needs more exciting copy to bring you more business. Or maybe you just don't have the time to update it, and add more information, as often as you'd like to. Or maybe you have a social, political, artistic, or commercial message that you'd like to promote via a personal blog-but you don't have the time to write it.

I can help. I can write your material, or edit what you write. And again, you'll get the credit.

WANT TO GAIN PUBLICITY BY SPEAKING?

If you're sometimes called on to speak at industry events, or if you want to gain recognition by making public appearances, I can help you. I'll write speeches that will wow your audience every time. And if you're not an experienced public speaker, I am! I've run for office several times, and hosted a TV talk show, so not only can I write your speeches for you: I can also coach you, to improve your delivery and make you even more impressive than you already are.

Whatever your story is, I'll help you tell it.

Your message is my job.
