Sean Platt – Ghostwriter

Bestselling ghostwriter for celebrities and thought leaders. 200+ books. 70+ bestsellers. Hollywood-ready IP. Legacy-level storytelling.

Overview

If your story is exceptional, your ghostwriter should be too.


Do you have a novel that’s been whispering in your ear for years?

A life story aching to be heard with empathy — and told with elegance?

A business book that could build your brand, boost your revenue, and cement your legacy?


You don’t just need a ghostwriter. You need a storyteller with precision, heart, and vision.


I’ve spent the last 15+ years sculpting raw ideas into unforgettable books and market-shifting IP. Since 2008, I’ve written over 200 books — more than 70 of them bestsellers. I’ve written for founders, celebrities, Emmy and Academy Award-winning producers, and industry titans. I even co-authored Write. Publish. Repeat., the indie publishing bible with 1,000+ five-star reviews.


The internet is full of freelancers for hire. I’m not one of them.


I’m the secret weapon behind household names. The architect of seven-figure funnels. The craftsman who can turn your ideas into IP that travels —across formats, platforms, and generations.


My clients are visionaries. Building movements, transforming industries, and telling the kinds of stories that won’t let go until they're told right.


If that sounds like you, here’s what you get when we work together:


Full-Service Ghostwriting & IP Development


Hire me, and you’re not just getting a ghostwriter. You’re getting a literary strike team built for high performance:


• A master developmental editor to architect your story’s spine

• A precision-focused line editor to polish every sentence

• A formatting virtuoso to give your manuscript a professional edge

• A visionary cover designer to craft a magnetic first impression

• A strategic marketing blueprint to launch your book into the spotlight


Whether you’re writing a thought leadership classic, a page-turning novel, or a screenplay that begs for a greenlight, we bring the same obsessive commitment to excellence.

Sean and Bonnie are easy to work with. They lesion to your idea, make constructive suggestions, then write an outline of the story. They then write and make a draft for approval before completing the task.
