Personal Assistants Often Perform Memoirs Ghostwriting Services

By Shirley Reed


Not every writer is going to accomplish a masterpiece of their own, but that does not mean they cannot make a name for themselves. For one who is appropriately ambitious in their art and creative in their approach, they can make their mark through memoirs ghostwriting. All one needs to find is a subject of adequate interest, charisma, and controversy.

To write such stories, the ghostwriter must pay particular attention to every facet of the history of their subject. They need to have a genuine interest in the story that is being shared with them. A great deal of trust is being placed in their ability to be non-biased, entertaining, thorough and creative as they record events their subject carries strong emotions on.

These writers may find their jobs impossible unless the subject grants them free reign to their life. This includes their home and all documents therein, be they letters or legal documents, Christmas cards, certificates of births and deaths, and all records or photographs of notable events. Sometimes the subjects are very elderly, and their home in disarray, so organizing this information can be tedious.

It might even be advantageous if the subject is bedridden. Elderly men and women often become enraged when they see someone going through their belongings, and this makes the job quite difficult. Even though they may have requested their services, and paid them a large retainer for same, actually witnessing a stranger in their attic can cause chaos in their heart.

Photographs, newspaper clippings, letters, and personal diaries all make the job for the ghostwriter go smoothly. Not only does it reflect how the subject thought and felt at the time of certain events, but it also provides a concise bibliography backing up the manuscript. No writer wishes to be called a Charlatan, but the fact is, documentation guards the writer against fraud on the part of their subject.

Writers must entertain as well as inform, and a good one uses this to their advantage. Mark Twain was best known for his ability to make characters come alive in his stories through the use of written Ebonics. The reader was made to truly hear the voices of characters through the creative recreation of their accented Pigeon English.

It is not uncommon for such individuals to become isolated from their normal lives during their stay in the world of the subject. Sometimes they must get inside their heads, experiencing pain and horror as if they were there. This can become stressful or traumatic for the writer, and they will need to take time to connect with the support of family and friends.

There are few tasks more challenging than taking a horrific or ugly story and telling it in a beautiful way. Writers who possess this talent help grant clarity to our hindsight, and they can plant the seeds of compassion for men and women placed in compromising situations. These stories give us a background that helps us to change the future by making better choices than those of the past.
