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?
