If you are one of the many people deciding to make the transitition into ghostwriting in 2009 then you are going to want to know where to start. Now I could plug my ghostwriting Uncovered manual here but I’m not going to. If you want to buy it you can 
Today I want to list all the websites I know where you can bid on ghostwriting jobs. I probably won’t be able to list them all so if I miss any that you recommend be sure to place them in the comments. I would like to be able to compile a very comprehensive listing here on The Hidden Writer so that anyone looking for ghostwriting jobs will know where to start. I would also like it if people would post their opinions and experiences with these websites in the comments section because that way we can help prevent time wasting.

Here’s a very useful tip for all ghostwriters and it deals with communication.
When you are working on a ghost writing assignment, you should remain in constant contact with your client. I have highlighted the word “should” and I really mean this. I am going to give you an example.
Say you have a batch of 50 articles to complete and your client wants them forwarded in batches of 10 as they are completed. What do you do? Do you just send an email to your client every time you complete 10 articles?
What I do in this situation is type the first article. I then forward this to my client for his/her comments and approval. What this does, is to allow me to make sure I am on the right track and it also lets the client see what my writing style is and the way I am tackling their project. If there are any problems they can let me know there and then instead of telling me when I have 10 articles completed. Makes sense now doesn’t it?
