Ghostwriting: The difference between a good idea and a published book

  • Do you have a story to tell, but no time to tell it?
  • Are you too busy doing what you love to share your experience with the world?
  • Are you torn between reaching out to potential customers and staying focused on your business?
  • Is your story trapped inside because English is your second language?

These are some of the reasons why authors turn to ghostwriters for support. Like them, you may dream of having a book but lack the time or skills to write a ready-for-press manuscript. That’s when you need the skills of Brookes Nohlgren and her select team of gifted and professional writers at Books by Brookes.

Starting wherever you are in the process—from notes on a napkin to a complete rough draft—Books by Brookes can craft your ideas into a finished manuscript—a concise, coherent, and beautifully written book that’s in your voice.

Beyond ghostwriting, Books by Brookes can take your finished manuscript all the way to a printed or e-book. Alternatively, authors can choose a la carte from a menu of services. Read more about Editing or Book Production services below.

Working with Books by Brookes, your editing will be in the hands of a pro who brings a personal commitment to every project she touches, while drawing on the specialized skills of others to meet your deadlines with proven expertise.
