Clearing top 3 myths people have about book ghostwriting:

Myth 1: Authentic voice is lost.

A ghostwriter's job is to ask you questions (and more questions and even more questions) and write your responses in your most real voice. If a ghostwriter does not sound authentic, you are with the wrong one, bro.

Myth 2: I don't need to do anything if I hire a ghostwriter.

Wrong. When you hire a ghostwriter, they will do all the heavy lifting and writing. But your job is to show up at regular catch-ups (~3x a month) and give your inputs for the next 3 months till the manuscript is created. Hiring someone reduces your work from 100% to 2-3%, but that 2-3% is still to be done by you.

Myth 3: I'd better write with ChatGPT than use a ghostwriter.

RIP your book, my friend.
