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're writing 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.

With over a decade of experience in publishing, 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 speak at Princeton, Altman Solon, and national conferences. They’ve appeared in outlets like HBO, CNN, Forbes, Tech Crunch, and Dwell. They’ve been featured on podcasts including The Patricia Raskin Show and Creative Insider. 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. We start with weekly live interviews to capture your story, voice, and insights. I then develop a detailed outline and write one chapter at a time, so you have space to reflect, revise, and shape the book as we go. You’ll never receive a surprise manuscript dumped all at once—instead, we build it together. The final product is a fully revised, professionally polished manuscript, along with publishing and marketing guidance tailored to your goals.

I offer three ghostwriting options depending on your vision, timeline, and publishing path:

The Thought Leader – Best for authors seeking traditional publication
