About Me
Dana Dobson
Book Ghostwriter and Editor
Hello! I am a full-time professional ghostwriter with 30+ years of experience. My writing assignments have included books, scripts, speeches, articles, columns, and blogs for clients ranging from entrepreneurs and subject matter experts to large organizations.
I have written books on a wide variety of subjects including memoirs, corporate histories, non-fiction and novels.
I’m extremely versatile with respect to writing style. My approach to the author-ghostwriting relationship is highly collaborative and compassionate. My specialty is becoming the voice, heart and soul of the author.
Ghostwriting a book is a complicated, multi-phased process, but fear not! I have the experience not just to write your book, but to manage the process from beginning to end to ensure you receive the best possible manuscript. You are in good hands.
Everyone’s life is a series of dramatic events — like finding the love of one’s life, transcending shortcomings, seeking redemption, accomplishing great things, and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Life for us all is a journey of discovery, meant to be witnessed and shared.
It’s time to share your story. I look forward to listening and partnering with you as we take your unique voice to the written page.
