Ghost writing - a good way to earn

Writing is an art and making money is also art and combining them is the best option in your life to earn a good amount of money for your good living.

It means ghost writing is your one of the best option.

Ghost writing is the combination of both the arts.

Your client may not know how a writer writes. He can have an idea say in 300 – 500 words but now he wants a book.

He wants an agreement and wants to have a deadline as how soon he can have a book which covers all his ideas.

You need to be very honest as you need more sits before you can plan anything good for him.

Honestly speaking he will tell you the same set of information but in very sitting you will note something new for your writing in the pitch of his voice, narration, emotion and from his facial expression. You never know what insight you can get from meeting him again and again.

However you need start fast and meet your deadline. If you book is of sub-standard then it can affect your future too so you have to work smarter and harder.

Indeed, ghost writing is not for people who have just started their writing career. It is for the seasoned writers.  It is for people who has the flair for writing and has a huge background of self-experience and exposure in that area of writing. Experience matters.

Money is not an issue. Here only your talent speaks. Film star, business tycoons, Politicians and sport star are someone like to hire you and chances you write for the first time for pennies but gradually your payment will increase like anything however it also depends on many facts such as your negotiation skills.

There is no doubt that internet and technology has given boom to writing industry and writers have chance to secure themselves financially by writing books for others.

Here in India there are many companies are working by hiring new writers and getting the manuscripts, blog, social sites update written for their client. According to the sources America is nearly 60% contributor for such companies.

I don’t work for any company. I have my clients and I search for new clients of my own. The best part for ghost writing is the advance money, written agreement and safety.

I always try to match my level of satisfaction, experts’ levels and my client’s level after all your satisfaction leads to client satisfaction too.

Your client is telling you everything. If he doesn’t telling you can understand soon why and then you know how to write.

When I am writing for blogs for my clients I always consider that I am earning my monthly expense but once I am writing for book, it means I am working for my own dreams. I love to spend on my interest.

There is nothing wrong in writing as a ghost writer. You come in a contract and 50% advance of the agreed amount that means your client will never like to leave you in the middle of the book writing process and if you are writing blog for the same client then his blog writing is to sweeten the deal.

Once you completed the book you are happy to receive the remaining amount and ready to sign another book contract which means 50% again. It is truly a win-win situation for both the parties.

I normally take break after completing one book that helps me to get refreshed and then start again.


Writing is a huge challenge

Writing is a discipline which can be taught and can be learnt with inclination towards writing. Nowadays there are several online and offline courses around the world so you can add this skill set with your genuine interest. There are coaches for writers, communities for writers and many such platforms where you can learn to develop your skillset as a writer.

When you have learned to write the next important thing that you need is a story and the willingness to share it in your own words. This process can sound simple until you have not tried; after all arranging ideas from your mind to and putting them in words on paper is never easy task.

Gradually over a period of time you learn to use what is taught to you in the classes and writing here and there you own a name for yourself as a fulltime writer so now you have a resume to tell or show the world both online and offline.

This process is really time consuming and very tiring and most usually give up in the middle but those who prevail definitely have the opportunity to catch the big fish from the ocean.

The decision to be a writer in this world certainly requires a strong financial background and when your financial background is not very strong and you can’t afford to foot all the bills then writing for others is the best available option and fortunately there are many jobs in the market for writers such as content and copy writers but here I am not talking about all those.

I am focusing here on writing books.

The market is huge and scope to make a fortune is also there but initially you have to give your best in terms of finance too.

Indeed the option of self – publishing sounds very easy but certainly it is not. It is very important to have editors, proofreaders, beta readers, cover designer, and many such professionals to help you till the final marketing team and you also have to pay your regular expenses that means you must have a deep pocket to pay all in advance.

Just forget the idea of your friend who has good drawing skill or one who is good at grammar to do you any favor here. You need people who are hardcore professionals in their respective fields.

Certainly it is not an easy task, only a person who is mad or highly passionate about writing can sustain here.

I personally suggest that writer particularly in their developing stage should not marry else life could soon be a mess unless you get lucky then your wife could be supporting you as a good bread earner. If not then these are all day dreams and don’t waste time as you always have shortage of time.

Taking risks is one of the qualities which a writer must have. In fact, it gives you an opportunity to keep yourself closed in one room and none bothers to knock at your door. You are like a king sitting in your own kingdom with your laptop and other necessary tools of writing and working whole day or sometime whole night long.

Writing is a challenge but to become a good writer is a huge one.


Writing for a celebrity writer always teaches you the best

If you make a decision to be a writer in this world when your financial background is not very strong and you actually have no one to guide you in this field of writing then you have to take a risk very wisely because you are the maker of your fortune.

Certainly it is not an easy task. Only a person who is mad or highly passionate about writing can do this. If you are not earning well then there is no point in having marriage or girlfriend. After all everyone likes a settled life partner and as a writer you have no hope of that until you sign a big contract with any publisher.

Taking risks is one of the qualities which a writer must have. In fact it gives you an opportunity to keep yourself closed in one room and none bothers to knock to disturb you. You are the king in your own kingdom and you are to read and write new things but doing it long you certainly need a good amount of money in order to foot the bills.

Each hard time opens a new window of opportunities and ghost writing is one of the best choices. Here you need to focus on the structure, plot and then never stop your flow, let fresh air to enter into your writing and never think about the readers and the actual writer for whom you are writing. Nothing actually matters to you when you are sitting in your kingdom and writing.

The actual writer is answerable for everything so let him answer to the readers. You are only answerable for your characters in the book - if they are fine then all is fine. Your world where you exist and the world which is writing are actually two different worlds but at time they are both similar.

Uncertainty is the fact of life and no knowledge can predict the future as it is only going to happen. Yes presumption is always possible which really matters and that makes sense. As in our life it is very difficult to pin point the cause and effect as similarly several small atoms in life pop up and change the situation of life. People have the freedom to think accordingly and behave sometime matured or bizarre or strangely.

Life is complicated and representing this in writing certainly opens you to great opportunities and challenges. As a ghost writer you have someone to take note of all this.

Writing is messy business - here you need to reach the readers guts and help them to walk in your shoes and act and react as you want them. And if you manage to hold them no matter with what logic then you are successful.

Actually writing is allowing you to live those lives in your brain, living those uncertainties, its ambiguities and letting go of the idea of complete resolution. It actually widens the area of naturalness of life into your stories and plot and it helps readers to understand that life is not all about chasing the bear but about what is actually suddenly thrown at you without any warning and you need you handle it all while staying upright.

It is lovely if there is someone equally involved in the story and have much wider experience in this field. They can help you to experiment and suggest you what is the best with better options. Writing for the celebrity writer always teaches you the most.
