Collaborate with an expert ghostwriter to share your wisdom
Do you have a groundbreaking idea, transformative story, or wealth of knowledge to share, but struggle to find the right words?
Do you say that you’ll start writing thought leadership, but always end up doing literally anything else?
Or maybe you have a course that you’ve always wanted to create, but have no clue where to start?
Enter: Ghostwriting
As your writing partner, I'm here to walk with you from initial concept to final copy. I’ll help you figure out your voice and create a plan of attack for publishing, as well as translate all of your thoughts into something that you’re proud to share.
I’ll also be there to snuff out those pesky fears that whisper, “No one cares what I have to say! Who would think I’m a thought leader? What even IS a thought leader?!”
While I can help you with your book, I also love helping people with other forms of content like speeches, newsletters, courses, and LinkedIn posts. I usually end up supporting my clients with a cornucopia of content.
What’s It Like To Work With Me?
Here’s a testimonial from Graham, who I worked with for over a year on his book, website, newsletter, and more. I swear, I didn’t write this or pay him to say it!
Why Ghostwriting Works
According to a 2024 study conducted by Edelman, nearly 3/4 of decision-makers say that an organization’s thought leadership is a more trustworthy way of assessing their capabilities than their marketing materials. In addition, 9 out of 10 c-suite executives say that they are moderately or very likely to be more receptive to sales outreach from a company that consistently produces high-quality thought leadership.
Or maybe you’re at a point in your career where you don’t care about sales. (Go you!) I’ve worked with clients who want to write something that leaves a legacy for their kids, shares their knowledge to help others, or just allows them to understand themselves more deeply.
Why The Hell Am I Qualified To Help You?
That’s a very fair question to ask!
My Brand
Let me start with something that differentiates me: I’ve got almost a decade of my own thought leadership under my belt. In 2016 I started The Joy List, a newsletter dedicated to helping New Yorkers make friends. From there I wrote Un-Lonely Planet, a book about creating spaces of belonging outside of organized religion. I was talking about reducing loneliness before it was cool— AKA before the pandemic.
Not to toot my own horn, (toot toot,) but I have been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, NBC, Quartz, and more. I’ve also given talks at places like Columbia University, Canyon Ranch, Meetup, Startup Grind, The Open Center, and Thoughtworks.
Last but not least, I have been referenced as an expert in community building by leaders like Esther Perel, Priya Parker, Nir Eyal, the founder of Eventbrite and— unexpectedly— Chris Voss, the FBI negotiator.
My Writing Clients
In other words, I know what it’s like to build your own brand. I’ve not only helped myself do that, but countless entrepreneurs. Over the course of my career I have worked with big companies like MOO, Ellevest, Convene, Percolate, and Intel. I’ve also worked 1:1 with executives who sold their company for half a billion dollars, and solopreneurs who are still working full-time for someone else. And if you’re not convinced yet, I was named one of LinkedIn’s top ghostwriters in 2017.
Ghostwriting combines my passions: connecting with people, telling stories, and helping others feel less alone. (Okay, and asking nosy questions.)
I know that your wisdom has the power to help people, and it would be my joy to help you share it.
