Ghostwriters work behind the scenes to complete books, articles and blogs "authored" by someone else--and that's okay with them. Finding clients is the first challenge, and students in this class will learn how to land those big ghostwriting contracts.
Making the right connections, how to pitch the memoir or other ghosting project to prospective clients, why you need a contract (and what to include in it), what's meant by "scope of work" and how to avoid PITA projects will be covered, along with notes on the actual ghostwriting.
Mary Mihaly has written books for doctors, politicians, mental health experts, corner-office executives and other professionals across the globe, and will give you the do's, don'ts, and pitfalls of ghostwriting.
