Ghostwriting: What It Is (and Isn’t)

Course Description

According to some publishing experts, more than half of nonfiction books are written—in whole or in part—by ghostwriters. Although they live in the shadows of the publishing world, anonymous and unacknowledged, these skilled scribes often make a good living. But ghostwriting is not for everyone. Join Armin Brott for a presentation and Q&A about ghostwriting, what it is, what it is not, and what it takes to do it successfully.
