Michael Loomis – Ghostwriter

Mike is a ghostwriter/co-writer. 25 years in publishing & marketing. 4 New York Times Bestsellers. Business, faith, politics, memoir.

Overview

I'm a book developer and ghostwriter.

I also coach authors on planning the best book for their goals, and crucial next steps after publishing.

Because of my twenty-plus years of publishing and marketing experience, I help authors refine their idea, polish their work, and reach their audience.

I can help you from concept to completion.

I've worked with NYT bestselling authors, publishers (Simon and Schuster, Hachette, Multnomah, Zondervan, Random House, Nelson, NavPress, and Penguin) and 4 recent projects hit the New York Times Bestseller list.

Yes, I've worked with well-known authors. I'm here on Reedsy because I find it just as rewarding to help first-time authors navigate the process and release a great book!
