“Write a Book” or Get One Written - Good Advice
Celine, over at Pimp Your Work, has the kind of article I love to see: Get your career in the fast lane. Write a book. Seriously. The idea is that writing a book can be a great career move.
In fact, it can. Of course, not everyone can write a book and even many of those that could have absolutely no inclination to do so. Hence ghostwriters.
Shameless self-promo: I ghostwrite, and books like Celine is suggesting is one of the things I do quite well, thank you very much. Of course, I’m not the only ghostwriter in the world.
Do you ghostwrite bookd? Post your link here and tell us about yourself.
Write well and often,

Every time I see something about writing a book, I feel nudged. I have begun!! But I have to create time to get it done this year. My goal is the end of first quarter. So keep nudging. I will also go and read Celine’s article. I just wanted to say thank you!!

I’m always willing to take on ghostwriting projects, as well. :) But I think it’s worth thinking outside of the box when talking about one of these sorts of projects: ghostwriters can complete e-books and shorter writing projects, which can be just as much of a boost as a full-length book.

I’ve ghostwritten ebooks for Internet Marketers. I’m dying for the opportunity to ghostwrite a “real” book. :)
