Overview

"I'm always so excited when I see a message from you! LOL! Every time I read your suggestions and read your Story Creation Guide I say to myself "Holy sh*t this guy is good and knows what he's talking about". A.M.


TEACH

If you want me to teach you how to write, this exciting package of 30 YEARS of story CRAFT and WISDOM includes:


Story Creation Guide - the 101+ steps of how to plot a story.

The Craft of JK Rowling - the 13 steps that made Harry Potter a success

The Gods of Story - how to write or tell any story


COACH/1st Draft

Under my guidance and coaching, you type or dictate the 1st rough draft of your story into a word document. You get that story OUT OF YOU! This might come in a surge or in bits and pieces or written records you provide. This is the first rough assembly of the material.


GHOSTWRITE

I do a 2nd draft, putting in a sound structure, moving the material around, eliminating the unnecessary, ensuring a chronological narrative sequence, theming it to the intended message, laying in mysteries early to keep the reader reading, building tension towards final resolution, cutting and pasting, rearranging and tidying as necessary, then doing a complete writing draft to draw everything together, using all my craft, putting in chapters with chapter headings, putting in navigational subheadings as needed, paragraphing for story flow, adjusting sentence length, giving the story narrative rhythm and emphasis and tightening words to apt phrases. While all this is going on, I make notes in the draft of where there are gaps for you to supply more information and flesh out the narrative with more detail. When complete, I send it back to you.


In the 3rd draft you go through the story answering the questions and fleshing out the story by adding more details.


I do a 4th draft, smoothing out the writing.


You do a 5th draft, checking to make sure all is correct.


I do a 6th draft to give the story a final polish,


And you have your story, the way you dreamed it will be - except even better! Victory!!!

Aug, 1993 — Present

A ghostwriter is usually anonymous. Once, I was invited to the launch party of a book I had ghosted for a celebrity, at which the publisher thanked everyone (except me) told the best joke in the book (mine) and the salesperson tried to sell me a book (the one I had written!).
Without revealing any confidentiality, here is a selection of projects I have worked on:

• Various Sports Stars
• Leading defense attorney who had conducted over 150 murder trials
• International sports coaches
• Mother of murdered teen in high profile crime case
• Humorous book ghosted for celebrity
• 5 x 5,000 NF books written in 10 days to get a publisher out of a hole
• Several late deadline books
• Army veteran who lost a leg in Afghanistan
• World champions
• Holocaust Survivor
• Internet Influencer

Tony was, in a word, AMAZING. Exactly what I was looking for even though I did not necessarily know it when I started looking. Positive, collaborative, but, most importantly, professional. I felt safe with him and at the same time enhanced by what he has to offer. I have no hesitation in recommending Tony as a collaborator, editor, partner.

Thanks Steven. It was a pleasure working with you and helping make your dream come true.
