If you’re a ghostwriter, is there a point to writing and publishing your own eBooks?
Absolutely. An eBook is a great tool to promote your writing skills. Most of the time you can’t share with prospective clients what you’ve ghostwritten (due to confidentiality agreements), but you can always show off your talents through an eBook.
When you’re communicating with a prospect who’s contemplating hiring you, include a list of your published eBooks. In addition, send her a PDF version of one of your eBooks to serve as a writing sample.
Along with boosting your writing portfolio, eBooks bring you extra cash each month through ongoing royalties. The more eBooks you publish, the more money you’ll see come in. You may not make a fortune, but at a minimum you will offset some of your freelance business expenses.
I’ve just published my third eBook – a fun read that shines a light on our upcoming holiday:
Valentine’s Day: How We Celebrate Love And Friendship Around The World
I had fun writing this, and as with every writing project, I learned a lot from the research I did for this eBook (sound familiar?).
Whether or not you celebrate Valentine’s Day (or the newer Singles Appreciation Day holiday), I want to express my gratitude for your interest in and support of my ghostwriting blog! I value each of you and thank you for reading my posts.
Have a productive week and a beautiful weekend,
Where Are The Ghostwriting Jobs?

Hi Christy and Graciela – Congratulations Graciela on your eBook – how timely, a book about Valentine’s Day.
I enjoyed the article about ghostwriting. I’m going to bookmark this page and may look a bit deeper into that subject. I will therefore be clicking on the links you’ve provided.
Thanks so much, both of you.
Thank you, Lenie! And I’m so happy you enjoyed the ghostwriting piece. Ghostwriting is a good field to explore. Many people out there have great ideas and excellent information to share. They simply need a talented writer to communicate that information in written form.

I tried to share this post, but your Twitter share button doesn’t work! 😦
