"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
