Want to Work as a Ghost? Ask Anne

I wanted to draw everyone's attention to a series of posts by Anne Wayman on tips for working as a ghostwriter. I know I've been approached more than a few times about writing a book for someone else. While I've ghostwritten articles, the books I've written have all been my own. (Fiction, that is. My one published mystery novel plus a few that are yet to be published--at least, so far. :) )*

Anne's blog About Freelance Writing has featured at least two posts so far that I've bookmarked for future reference. First, how she approaches a new project and, second, what terms to include in the contract (or "letter of agreement" as she calls it--same thing, sounds less ominous and legalistic).

If you're interested in ghostwriting (as I am), keep an eye on Anne's blog. It's one of my freelance favorites, anyhow.

*Just as a footnote, I should mention that my short story "A Woman Who Thinks" will be published as part of the CHESAPEAKE CRIMES 4 anthology to be published by Wildside Press in March 2010. Needless to say, I'm thrilled. :)
