Welcome to Written by a Ghost

My name is Simon Cann: I'm an author. As well as writing my own books, I also write for other people as a ghostwriter.

A ghostwriter is a professional writer who is paid to write books (and other written materials) which are then credited to another person. As far as the public will know, that other person is the author: the writer is an unseen ghost.

A ghostwriter will often be employed by celebrities, business executives, political leaders, (retired) military personnel, and ordinary people with an incredible tale to tell. You will often find autobiographies, articles, and other books (such as business manuals) which have been written by these busy, high profile individuals were originally created by an unseen ghostwriter.
