Amanda Nell Edgar – Ghostwriter

“You captured my voice better than I could.”

“I finally feel like my story makes sense.”

“I burst into tears at the first sentence.”

That’s what clients say after working with me, and it’s what I want for you, too. Whether you want to expand your platform, teach through lived experience, offer language for someone else’s struggle, or simply preserve your legacy for the people who matter most, I’m here to help you get it right.

I founded a publishing company focused on memoir and other story-based nonfiction because I believe the health of our society depends on our access to storytelling--both as readers and as non-writers who need a boost to get their ideas out.

For over a decade, I've written books for people from household names to aspiring thought leaders and new business owners. I specialize in memoirs and story-rich nonfiction that are both powerful and deeply personal. My job is to understand your voice, shape your story, and help you create a book that feels honest, intentional, and genuinely moving.

Clients I’ve worked with have gone on to be interviewed on a variety of shows on HBO, CNN, and C-SPAN. Their ideas have appeared in Forbes, Tech Crunch, and Dwell. They've appeared on hundreds of podcasts. More importantly, they’ve written books that made someone feel seen—and that’s a different kind of success that matters just as much.

My ghostwriting process is immersive, collaborative, and designed to bring out your best thinking.

All projects begin with my signature development process, including 4-8 weeks of targeted developmental interviews. The process culminates in a working outline we'll revise until it captures your voice and vision. For memoir projects, my trademarked Memoir Method process ensures your story "reads like fiction," engaging readers from the first words to the last.

From there, I offer two tiers of ghostwriting:

*The Thought Leader* offers unlimited revision and consistent, high-touch support throughout the process. We'll meet weekly throughout our time together so we can actively collaborate to bring out the best in your book. This tier also gives you access to publishing support, including market analysis, publishing path consultation, and structured direction for building your author platform.

$4,999 per month

*The Changemaker* is a perfect fit for those who want a more hands-on approach. You'll receive a first draft which you'll then be invited to revise and edit as you like before handing it back to me for clean-up and polishing. This package includes one round of revision.

$3,499 per month

If you’re ready to write a book that reflects your values, honors your voice, and truly helps the people it’s meant to serve, I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to let me know which package seems like the best fit—or if you’d prefer to begin with a proposal.
