Tips For Selecting The Right Writers When Considering Ghostwriting Memoirs

By Roger Gibson


Not everyone is a writer. However, that does not mean that you still cannot get your story told. If there is a book that you would like to write but you are not up to it, the best thing to do is to hire a ghostwriter to do it for you. Here is how to go about finding the right people for ghostwriting memoirs.

Agree with the author on how you will be billed for the services. This kind of service is certainly not cheap, but in the long run it is worth the investment. Some authors charge by the hour, while others charge per project. On an hourly basis, the amount paid will depend on how long it takes the author to write the book, so you won't have so much control over the final price, as compared to if you were charged on a project basis.

You need to agree with the writer on how you will communicate. Whether you will conduct face to face meetings or telephone interviews. You may also want to talk on the phone or through online video messaging. Choose a method that works best for you. You also have to agree on the format in which you will submit all the information they need. You could send documents or photographs or audio and video tapes.

Have a deadline by which the project should end. Just be sure that the deadline that you give the writer is realistic. No need to rush them through a project. They will do a better job when they feel that they have not been rushed.

To get good results, it is important that you hire someone who is experienced. The person should have already written the kind of book that you want. This way, at least you will be sure that they understand you. This increases chances of you getting what you want.

Think about the kind of package that you would like to present your audience with. Whether you just want a book or you want to include other media, like audios and photos. Discuss with the writer on the best way to do this.

Find a writer that you connect well with. This will make it so much easier and so much more fun for you to work with them. If you connect well them you can be almost sure that the end result will be good. That is why it is essential that you take your time and interview writers, until you find the right person to work with.

The writer should submit a book draft to you. Make sure to go through the draft and make the necessary changes that you want. This will make the book sound more personalized. The writer will incorporate the changes you have made in the final draft. It is important that you are happy with the end draft before it goes to press.
