My Ghostwriting Weekly Review

by Amanda on January 24, 2009

It’s Saturday and the first of my weekly reviews.  I receive a large amount of emails every week from people who are curious about what it is a ghostwriter does.  To help satisfy those of you who are curious I have decided to start posting a weekly review that details all the work I have completed each week.

Sunday 18th January:
I know it was Sunday but deadlines are deadlines and so I had to work for an hour today.  I had three 500 word articles to complete for a website that I write for.  I hate working on Sunday’s because for me Sunday is a family day and normally involves cooking a large roast and sitting around the table reviewing our week.  Thankfully my soon to be husband Joe prepared the dinner and entertained our two children while I finished my articles.

Monday 19th January:
My daughter Emma who’s 5 was back in school today.  I still had Conor my 2 year old at home so getting work done during the day can be tough.  I did however manage to get on blog post completed this morning.  Monday night when my children were tucked up in bed provided me with the opportunity to get the outline for my new e-book completed and choose my latest writing assignment from the website I write for.  As a ghostwriter, I can’t post the website details here so I’m sorry about that.

Friday Link Love At The Hidden Writer

by Amanda on January 16, 2009

It’s Friday again and what a week it’s been.  My week has been hectic what with coaching and new client projects.  I’ve had deadlines coming out my ears but I know my bank will be thanking me at the end of the month.  That said, I am a bit behind in my reading so I don’t have as much link love to share with you this week, so if you have something you would like to share, maybe a blog post you wrote, or a writing post that you read, be sure to let me know.

The first post I want to share today is from Writing Inspiration and it’s titled Inspirational Affirmations To Uplift You.  I am a big believer in the law of attraction and this post has some great affirmations that you can use on a daily basis.  It’s worth reading even if you don’t follow the law of attraction.

What’s Your Blog Really About

by Amanda on January 8, 2009

I was reading a very interesting post over on Tumblemoose yesterday that got me to thinking, “what is my blog really about?”  When I first started this blog my aim was to teach other people out there how to become successful ghostwriters and hopefully that is what I have managed to do.  You can answer that for me in the comments section below if you like :-)

So I wanted my blog to be all about ghostwriting, how to find ghostwriting jobs, and how to be a successful ghostwriter.  Looking back over the last 6 months blog posts I have come to realise that my blog doesn’t just deal with these three things.  My blog has taken on a more personal feel and I now like to report on much more than just getting ghostwriting jobs.  I want to incorporate more, give more advice, and cover more writing ground.  I want my blog to be a place where readers come to be inspired about ghostwriting, to learn the good and the bad aspects of ghostwriting, and feel free to ask questions or make suggestions.  The only way that I know how to do this is to become more personal with my readers.  To share more tales about my working life and to provide more information than I have been doing.
