Thank you for your kind words Fae Rowen. Some days it is about clear as mud to me!

Famous artists did the same thing- they would allow their students paint under their instruction and then placed their signature on it. Consider also the case of Shakespeare. Or think of the great ghostwriter Cyrano De Bergerac

It is about taking the ideas and stories in a person's head, their video, or other written materials and sewing them into prose within the quilted structure of a book.

They are for many types of writing. I do business books, how-to, and history books. In addition I also ghostwrite articles and blogs. There are a number of ghostwriters that even ghostwrite fiction.

Perfect frame of mind for this, John. I once attended a workshop on ghostwriting, but your article makes it so much clearer. Thanks!

It feels like it takes a bit of pressure off when you are writing true life stories. You don't have to make it up, but rather you must structure it and make it sound interesting...am I right?
