Top Ghostwriting related questions

Most ghostwriters already have the tools they need, but you should prepare any information they need for their research. If you want them to write your memoirs, you and anyone they need to interview should be available. It would help if you had your laptop or desktop computer with a fast internet connection and webcam to coordinate with your ghostwriter on the materials. 

That depends on the kind of materials you contracted your ghostwriter to write. An E-book could take several weeks or several months, depending on the scope of the material. If you book a ghostwriter to do blog posts, this can take a few weeks to the whole year if you hire them to write content for a year-long social media strategy. 

Yes! If you run a business that hires ghostwriters’ services and need to boost your numbers, you can hire Taskers to fill in. Just make a post that has all the crucial details. Say what sort of credentials, experience, writing specialisation and level of skill you want in a Tasker. Those fitting your description will ask about your post and give you a free quote, and you can negotiate from there. 

Ghostwriters aren’t the most accessible professionals to find since they tend to keep a low profile due to a non-disclosure agreement. You can use Airtasker, as it lists the services of proven ghostwriters. Make a post with all the crucial details like expected output and the sort of experience and expertise you want in a ghostwriter. Don’t forget to mention your budget, as well as your location, so you get matched with ghostwriters closest to you. 

Yes. This is necessary to protect both your rights as the author and their rights as your ghostwriter. NDA is a contract with details that can preserve the work’s integrity by inserting provisions against plagiarism. An NDA can ensure your ghostwriter is paid what they’re due, and whether you want to entitle them to royalties or not, and to what extent. The NDA can also protect ownership of the material and license its reproduction. 

Yes, music is one of the many types of material ghostwriters craft. The artists themselves didn’t always write some musical hits - they sometimes hired ghostwriters to write. If you need someone to write lyrics to go with your musical arrangements and melodies, make a post on Airtasker. Include specifics like the music genre you prefer, your location, schedule and budget. Interested Taskers will reply with a free quote, and you can discuss details from there. 

What do ghostwriting services include?

Ghostwriting services include all the necessary activities for you to have materials written by a capable writer, all under your name, for business-related purposes. They can write blog posts, speeches, social media posts and other materials on your behalf. They can also write e-books or memoirs, especially books on topics you would love to write about but don’t have the time or writing skill. 

Ghostwriters can do thorough research on their assigned topic, then write drafts and submit them for your approval. They can do the necessary edits until the final product is polished and ready for publishing.  

Research and interviews

Ghostwriters will do the necessary research before writing any materials. Should your hired ghostwriter need to write a book or anything about what you are interested and knowledgeable in, they can and will do extensive research on the topic. If they are writing your memoirs, they can interview you and the significant people in your life. They may take down notes as well as record conversations while doing the interviews.  

Writing and submitting drafts

After your ghostwriter has completed the research, they proceed to write drafts. In the case of writing e-books or books, they may decide to submit drafts consisting of one or several chapters at a time. You can agree on the volume and frequency of submitting drafts and set timetables for their submission and when you should turn in your comments for editing.  

In making short written materials like blog posts, your ghostwriter can submit them as often as you need, then give your suggestions for edits. Your ghostwriter may contact you occasionally to clarify bits of information as they go along and write your materials. 

Adding photos and illustration

Some ghostwriters can include photos, illustration, infographics or other visual aids into your materials, but this can cost extra. You may want to hire different specialists to shoot book covers or create the appropriate illustrations to include in your book.  

Editing revisions

Your hired ghostwriter can work on editing the drafts after you’ve viewed them and gave your comments and suggestions. They can edit the work according to established industry standards, preferred writing style, tone, and personal preferences. The editing process can continue until you are both satisfied with the end product. 

Publishing the materials

In writing a book, your ghostwriter can turn over all the drafts or manuscripts to you, and you can handle the publishing. If you don’t have the time or are unfamiliar with the publishing process, your ghostwriter can find a publisher for you, but this can cost extra. 

If your ghostwriter handles any writing for online material like blog posts or social media posts, they can turn over their materials, and your staff can publish them online. Some ghostwriters can also handle the publishing of online materials to your website or social media accounts, but this likewise costs extra.Â
