Hannah Sandoval – Ghostwriter

I am a freelance ghostwriter (specializing in all fantasy subgenres, with a special love for YA, and cozy mysteries) and line editor (specializing in fiction manuscripts) based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I am the published author of six books (four fiction, two nonfiction). In my seven years as a professional, I have worked on over four dozen manuscripts, either as a ghostwriter or editor. My ghosted work has received 5-star ratings on Amazon and Goodreads, and previous clients have received traditional publishing deals, manuscript requests from agents, and interest from movie producers.

I always seek to capture my client’s voice when polishing existing material into an arresting narrative style that pleases readers and agents alike. Without rich character development and engaging language, your riveting story idea can fall flat. If you choose me as your ghostwriter, you get one-on-one interviews with an experienced writer who can capture your voice and delight your readers. I love what I do, which means I pour passion into each project, giving every manuscript the care and dedication it deserves.

I place a strong focus on characterization and worldbuilding, ensuring each story has a solid foundation around which to shape the plot. I offer outline creation, rewrites of existing material, and from-scratch book creation. No matter the service, I always put your vision and feedback above all else, so that you get the book you've dreamed of on repeat in your head.

My BA in English with an emphasis in writing from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga instilled me with knowledge of many creative and academic writing styles, creating the versatility required to act as a successful ghost. My work experience in the book printing industry (acting as a manuscript internal layout designer for the printing company 47Journals) and my Professional Book Editor certification from IAP has granted me insider knowledge of the publishing industry. My experience as a copy editor ensures that my prose is always up to par with Chicago guidelines.

I'll help you put your best foot forward for publication and bring your vision to life.

(Please Note: the books listed in my portfolio are a mixture of editing clients, ghostwriting clients who have allowed this disclosure of my involvement in their books, and my own publications.)
