How to Hire a Professional Ghostwriter

Let’s say you’ve made the decision to write a non-fiction book or a novel. Congratulations! Let’s also say that you have neither the time nor the expertise to write it yourself. You think you’d like to hire a ghostwriter. But what should you look for? How do you choose the best ghostwriter or book editor?

Here are the five key things to consider.

1. Look for experience. You need an expert who has written or edited lots of published books. You need someone who knows all the tricks of the trade and can bring your ideas to life in a way that will captivate and delight your readers. Your ghostwriter needs to be able to show you examples of work in your genre and coach you through the process from beginning to end.
2. Look for value. While a cut-rate ghostwriter may offer a temptingly low price, rest assured that the quality will be commensurate. You don’t want someone who will dash off a shoddy product, forcing you to hire an editor to fix it. When you hire Thomas Hauck, you can be assured of the highest possible quality and value, and your manuscript will be ready to publish.
3. Look for reliability. You need a ghostwriter on whom you can depend. Can you easily contact your ghostwriter? Are they available on Skype? Do they respond to inquiries quickly? Thomas Hauck is a professional ghostwriter and book editor. He’s not a part-time hobbyist. You can reach him by phone or email seven days a week. He’s dedicated to serving his many valued clients and he strives for 100% satisfaction, first time and every time.
4. Look for creativity. A good ghostwriter or book editor is also an artist. You need someone who will give your book that special undefinable glow that attracts and keeps readers, and sets you apart from the pack. This requires a deep understanding of the possibilities of the English language and a desire to go one step farther than the ordinary.
5. Don’t sign a contract! Never get locked into a long complicated contract with a ghostwriter or editor. You need to be able to cancel at any time and for any reason. Thomas Hauck always recommends the use of milestones, generally of 5,000 words. You work your way through one milestone to the next until the book is finished. The important thing is that you, the client, are in control, and that you’re never locked into a contract that requires you to pay huge sums of money up front.
