Marian Beckett – Ghostwriter

A lifelong lover of stories, I began ghostwriting professionally in January of 2020, specializing in the Young-Adult Fantasy genre. I've now written four full trilogies, and have gained valuable insight into the industry by working with Outliners and Developmental Editors to produce high-quality original books that grip young readers and transport them to other worlds.

The key to a good fantasy is in the setting. Magic, dragons, witches, wars - the world your protagonist inhabits has to be fresh and exciting; something your readers haven't seen before, but are eager to explore. My experience has given me a strong grasp of worldbuilding, allowing me to craft unique realms, races, and magic-systems that are sure to elevate your stories and set them apart from other works in the genre. I've created lore, cultures, history, and even some original language elements in the form of spells and incantations - all to help make original worlds feel real and lived in.

Breaking free of the fantasy genre, however, my strengths in character writing and action scenes are easily transferable to other fields. I'm particularly interested in expanding to YA Dystopia.

I believe in the power of stories, and I am dedicated to making sure your story gets told, just the way you want it to be.

*I am not a sensitivity reader; I fully support it when someone wants to make sure their stories don't cross any lines accidentally, but I'm not qualified for that line of work. My only job is to turn ideas into novels. If you're looking for someone to double check your work for something you might have said inadvertently, you're better off looking elsewhere.*
