Lisa Tener: Write Your Book with a Ghostwriter
 

Literary Agent Lisa Tener offered terrific advice for entrepreneurs who want to write a book when she appeared on the latest podcast episode of "Write Your Book in a Flash with Dan Janal."

"Lisa offered tremendous ideas and insights for people who own their businesses and who want to write a book to stand out from the crowd, leave a lasting legacy, or create a valuable marketing tool in the form of a book," said Dan Janal, who has written more than a dozen books that have been translated into six languages. He helps business people write their books by offering services as book coaching, developmental editing, and ghostwriting. For more information, go to WriteYourBookInAFlash.com.

 

Her tips include:

 

 

  • An experienced ghostwriter can capture your voice. They look for the words you use in conversation, whether you sound formal or informal. You can also show them books you want yours to be like.

 

  • Before hiring a ghostwriter, look at samples of their work.

 

  • A skilled ghostwriter can write in various styles and can match your voice.

 

  • You can find ghostwriters on Google. The more specific your search terms, the better results you'll get. For example, "ghostwriter for memoirs," or "ghostwriter for a health book." It's a starting point. Then interview them.

 

  • Expect to pay between $1-2 per word for an experienced ghostwriter for a 200-page book.

 

  • Always have a contract with a ghostwriter. You need to agree on the expectations, such as tone, word count, pages, number of interviews, research, and revisions. Everyone needs to be on the same page.

 

  • Look at the draft early in the process so you can give feedback. You'll save a lot of time compared with if you wait until the first draft is done.

 

  • A ghostwriter will write a book based on interviewing you, looking at your courses (and other materials), and conducting research.
