We see a lot of posts and articles that promise to show you how to run a business, raise and family, and write a book at the same time. While there are superheroes who can accomplish all of those things, let’s be honest: 60% of nonfiction titles are ghostwritten. So, sure, you can “have it all” while writing a book—if you hire somebody else to do the book writing part!
No shame!
We hire out a lot of tasks, too! We’ve hired professional lawyers, electricians, and accountants. Those aren’t our skillsets, so it makes sense to pay someone to do those jobs, freeing us up to work on what we do best—our passion projects.
Because ghostwriters are, by definition, invisible, many people are surprised that non-celebrities can hire us. But it’s true! We’re not just for the reality stars of the world! And, when it comes down to it, it makes good business sense to bring someone on board whose skills complement your own. You’re an expert on your subject matter—let us bring our skills in market analysis, structure, writing, and project management to your book.
We hope you won’t try to rewire your kitchen on your own. So why would you try to write a book on your own?
In the end, there really is one simple trick to having it all while writing a book—hire someone to write the book!
