I have written, published, and edited every possible genre. My perspective is global and professional. I have traveled the world and earned a Ph.D. in Asian Religion and Philosophy. I have ghostwritten/edited memoirs for a disgruntled Evangelical minister, a live-large life coach, and beat-down personal assistant for Al Pacino. (Of late, I have come to enjoy humanizing manuscripts written by AI.)

Words open worlds real and imagined.

If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to interview. Professionally, I've been a wordsmith since 2015.

"It was a pleasure working with David. I highly recommend David for your project needs." As an award-winning and top-rated writer and editor, I have been working consistently, independently, and professionally now for over three decades as a freelance ghostwriter. From memoir to historical fiction, romance and novels pertaining to Americana, to cultural conflicts, whistleblower books, articles and bios about the people who contribute to society in meaningful ways - all the way to the heroes and villains who are our public servants and all of those in between, I have become adept at structuring universally-appealing and highly successful manuscripts. Writing has been my passion and livelihood for over 35 years. During this time, I have also helped other writers by proofreading, enhancing, advising, and editing their works. I hold a B.A. from New York University and a Masters Degree in Education from Penn State University, and was a University Honors Scholar with specialties in human development, the Great Books of Western Culture, persuasive writing, Freudian Psychology, cultural affairs, and theatrical play writing. My work as a family therapist for twenty years has helped me to understand families in a way most writers cannot. I have a knack for capturing the collective meaning behind ordinary lives while making the simplest of scenes my most remarkable. Please see the reviews of my work here on Upwork, which frequently call to mind my innate ability to effortlessly structure universally appealing themes, events, and characters. Finding success early on way back when I was getting my bachelor's degree, I quickly earned a reputation for producing great and epic family dramas, engaging romance, memoirs which took a life well-lived and turned it into a hero’s journey, historical fiction from vast periods across the globe, slices of Americana, many times involving ordinary characters finding themselves in extraordinary circumstances. As a ghostwriter, my published works include more than fourteen memoirs, eight romance, five historical dramas, and eight crime-dramas/legal thrillers. I use a flexible writing style which incorporates a variety of the finest techniques. My writing becomes powerfully persuasive and magnetic by drawing the reader into the world we will create. Depending upon the type of project, I always keep the writing interesting and moving, while utilizing the best and most efficient resources. Not only a writer; I am a firm editor and also writing coach. With memoirs, phone calls at first with my client are a good way to communicate until we both feel we have discussed the project with clarity. At that time, documents, transcripts and/or audio files will supplement our calls and would be the remainder of what I would need! Besides being a ghostwriter, I have also worked professionally as a project manager and have supervised and spearheaded, utilizing professional editors and writers, manuscripts of fiction, social sciences, church history, art, research and development, social ills, autobiography, short story collections, cultural affairs, and Americana. Among my most recent successes was a memoir which remained on the best-seller list for months on Amazon about a boy escaping Communist terrorism with his family only to come to America, and later be drafted to fight Communists in Vietnam. An ordinary citizen rising up in an epic fight for freedom against colonization at the hands of an imperialistic nation became a best-selling historical fiction. A highly-awarded American success story dealt with a young woman overcoming poverty, cyclical familial abuse, and addiction, who eventually finds the man of her dreams and turns her life around, rising to being CEO of a multinational company. Some of my other recently successful books are a dystopian fantasy love story wherein the heroine overcomes prejudice and a controlling family in order to lead a band of warriors to defeat an evil empire. My last two ghostwritten books have gotten great reviews and are best-sellers on both Amazon and Barnes and Noble. David "David came to the rescue when I was standing at the crossroads with my novel. At that time, my subplot was not meshing as it should. I researched literally dozens of ghostwriters until I came across David, who had glowing reviews and exceptional credentials. Later, I discovered the secret to his success was not only a stellar background, but his most important quality was that he is a "problem solver." I have discovered that he is able to bring his expertise to the table in many genres. He was able to proofread my novel to see what else needed to be eliminated and added, and then discussed with me several directions we could take with the scenes in question. David is definitely someone you want to have writing your book! Many thanks to him for helping to make my novel so wonderfully complex." :) - Kyle

I started my career as a stand up comedian and it led me to be one of the youngest syndicated columnists in the country; an amazing job I enjoyed for seven years. I then had the honor of working on Capitol Hill as a Communications Director. I've hosted three-hour live talk shows at SiriusXM and have been a political pundit on cable news. I've written for The Washington Post, The Atlantic, Los Angeles Times, Mother Jones, USAToday and many others. I'm the 2025 recipient of the PEN America/Jean Stein award for Oral History. As a consultant, I have experience working with different types of clients with various levels of abilities and goals. Whether you want to launch a campaign, write a book, punch up a script, or simply want to feel more comfortable in front of a crowd--I can help! Writing samples available upon request.

I am a writer that focuses on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, cover letters, corporate bios, and various business content (websites, marketing materials) for clients. I also have expertise in job search tactics and strategy and offer clients help via one-on-one coaching services over video call or phone. My specialty is technology resumes for the US market targeting start ups (Silicon Valley / San Francisco Bay Area and across the US) with many successes at big name companies (Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla, FAANG, et al.). I've also written hundreds of resumes and CVs for global clients from CEO to junior roles across industries including law, marketing, finance, entertainment, and healthcare. My technology clients range from CTO and CIO level, entrepreneurs and founders, product managers, data scientists, software engineers, project managers, infosec, testers, etc. I'm different than most resume writers in that I have 20 years of hiring experience as a recruiter for US startups, so I have deep knowledge of the resume's intended audience. I know how the mind of a recruiter functions - why they stop reading a resume, what gets their interest, etc. - and I leverage that expertise when writing for my clients. I have had many articles on tech career topics (resumes, interviews, markets) published and/or cited by Lifehacker, Fast Company, WSJ Online, American Management Association, Tech Beacon, DZone, et al. My former blog (now inactive) is JobTipsForGeeks.com, and I published a job search ebook Job Tips For Geeks: The Job Search (available on Amazon). I'm 'fecak' on Hacker News and active on Reddit's /r/resumes as 'resumeraidersDOTcom' where I help job seekers with targeted advice on resumes and job search strategy. I'm also a former moderator at /r/cscareerquestions under my own handle 'fecak'. Please have a look at my Upwork history and reach out if you have any questions.
