Ghostwriter for Executive Blogs & Book Chapters
Worldwide
I'm a senior data/analytics executive with 25+ years of experience, currently leading Professional Services at a major enterprise data infrastructure company. I have strong opinions, deep domain knowledge, and a constant flow of raw material (voice notes, bullet points, half-drafts, LinkedIn posts, meeting notes) — what I don't have is time to shape it into finished articles and book chapters. I'm looking for a ghostwriter who is strong at structuring and compiling, not generating ideas from scratch. You'll take my raw content and turn it into coherent, publication-ready pieces in my voice. What you'll work on: Blog posts and LinkedIn articles on AI adoption, data strategy, and enterprise technology Book chapters (nonfiction, business/thought-leadership style) Occasional op-ed style or media-facing commentary My style (please read before applying): Concise, punchy, verb-led prose Scannable formatting, no fluff or filler No em dashes — use colons or pipes instead Anecdotal, field-based framing over generic corporate commentary Natural, integrated humor where it fits — never forced You should have: Proven ghostwriting experience in business/tech/thought-leadership content (please share 2-3 samples, ideally where you turned rough notes into a finished piece) Strong command of English prose rhythm and structure — this is client-facing, executive-level content Comfort working from messy inputs: voice transcripts, bullet dumps, disorganized notes Ability to take detailed, specific feedback and revise precisely (not just "make it better") How we'll start: Paid trial first. I'll send you a raw content dump (~500-1000 words of notes) and a target format (blog post or article), and pay a flat trial rate for a first draft. If it's a strong fit, we'll move to an ongoing arrangement — likely weekly or biweekly pieces plus book chapter work.
