    I love to help authors achieve their vision, especially book projects (non-fiction or fiction). Throughout the process, I bring the highest level of professionalism in communication, organization, and discipline. I can focus not only on sharpening structure, grammar, syntax, etc., but developing the narrative and/or thematic arc while preserving the author's distinct voice and/or desired style. I look forward to working with you.

    If you’re in a hurry to find a ghostwriter, you can stop reading here and visit my website: abysays.com. Or, you can keep going and I’ll give you what you want. When you came here, you’re asking: Who are you and why should I trust you with my book? I could tell you and you’d nod. But telling you wouldn’t make it stick to your mind. I want it to stick so I’ll show you. Once you’ve seen it and lived it, you’ll never forget it. It’d fuel your choice of hiring on Upwork. Aby had always wanted to write a novel. He learned to read before he went to kindergarten. In grade school, he still had his nose in a book. In high school, the other kids thought he was weird because he’d read a book while walking home dragging his schoolbag in one hand. Aby dreamed of writing his own book someday. But when he went to college, his parents and family friends persuaded him to study something practical. Aby hated practical and secretly kept reading novels. And he started writing poetry almost every day. But he was a very obedient young boy, so he did what his people told him. He got a practical degree in Agricultural Science Education. Aby realized that the only available practical jobs would bore him to tears. But he needed a job anyway. He applied as an English teacher in a Junior High School in the neighborhood. He got the job and was quite happy because he loves teaching English to young kids who’re like him. Aby took joy in helping them understand Literature. He took on translating Shakespeare’s Othello for them. That’s his first published book. The boss was a wicked miser and doesn’t like to pay his staff. Aby left the school and took another teaching job, but the new boss was even eviler. Aby saw that practical would not make him or anyone happy. He decided to do the one thing he had always wanted more than anything else—he’d finally write a novel. He didn’t care if nobody would ever read his novel. He was going to do it just because he wanted to. And nobody would stop him. On a Tuesday, after everyone had left home, Aby took his book and a pen. He wanted to write an exciting story packed with action and adventure about a rich man and his wayward son during a difficult time—the day of reckoning. He wrote the first word of his novel: “The.” Aby stared at the almost blank sheet. He had a million different choices for the next word. And a million more for the one after that. The possibilities were endless. He couldn’t write the next word. If he got started in the wrong direction, he’d have to backtrack, and that would be horrible. He’d waited his whole life to write this story. It has to be perfect and special. He couldn’t afford to get it wrong. Aby stared down at the paper for one full hour. “The” stood there in misery. He knew he could write. He had the talent. Several people have read his poems and told him what skill he has. He had won several debates in school, and he was the best essay writer in his class. He had the story bubbling up inside him. But somehow, he couldn’t get it on the page. Finally, he clapped the book together and cried. Then he dried his eyes. He wanted so desperately to write a novel. He wasn’t going to let his lack of knowledge stop him. All he needed was someone to guide him. A mentor. Someone to point the way. Aby opened his web browser and went looking for a class or a workshop on how to write a novel. He quickly discovered several writing seminars. He enrolled in the first, but the technique was too hard. One claimed to have taught great authors like Robert Ludlum. Yet that style did not work for Aby. After a couple of years in seminars and conferences, Aby knew how best to write. He knew how to enter the creative paradigm, which is a kind of Avatar state for writers. He is still learning. But there was a problem. Aby had spent all of his money on seminars and conferences and several online courses. Aby was technically jobless. He went to a friend, Bruce. Bruce is an old businessman. “Why don’t you write a book in your name, Bruce?” “What? I’m not Ronald Reagan. I can’t write!” “Even Ronald writes without writing! He uses people like me. I can write your book in your voice!” And since then, Aby had ghostwritten several books. He published a nonfiction book in his name. He hopes to publish some of his poems soon. If you want to write without writing, I’m a professional ghost. I will write your unforgettable book in your voice and disappear. You don’t have to go through all those years of stress I went through for a novel. We can get your book published in a matter of weeks. Thank you for your interest in my ghostwriting service. I'll get notified if you send me a message. I'd love to see you on camera. Or hear you. I'm new on Upwork and you can’t possibly see my clients’ testimonials. I hope to add yours. I hope you enjoyed this short text! Your message will only get to your audience with a touching and relatable original story. I'm at your beck and call anytime. Contact me now

    I am a freelance writer who loves working with other people to create friendly and educational articles, blog posts, and web copy that their readers enjoy reading. As I looked to improve on my own writing for my online fitness business, I fell in love with writing! I loved writing and reading as a child, but the new challenges of writing for the web was brand new and exciting. Over the past two years, I've taken courses to improve my writing while also finding freelance work on UpWork.
