Authors Anonymous

Welcome

You have a great idea for a book. You may even have an outline and snippets of content. Yet, you can’t seem to pull it together into a fully formed manuscript.

Not to worry. That’s my job.

I ask questions—and lots of them—to coax answers from you that align the content of your book with the intent of your concept. Whether you need developmental editing and content management assistance, manuscript critique or complete ghostwriting services, I’ll craft your message into a viable and marketable book that can:

Position you as an expert in your field

Attract new clients or customers

Connect your personal life’s experience to touch others’ lives

Reach your storytelling goals

Rest assured that, as your ghostwriter, your author anonymity is of utmost importance to me. Your identity and content are kept in the strictest confidence before, during, and after our working together.

Your concept. Your voice. Your book.

Testimonials

“Susan's editing skills enabled me to graduate my writing technique, make my words more clear to the reader and clarify my subject matter. With her help, I went from notes to chapters to a finished product. Her manner--kind, clear and concise--enabled me to become a better writer and produced a professional, finished product. Her help was invaluable. Without her guidance my project would still be in the clouds. She systematically guided me along the path and answered questions I did not know to ask. She never tired of my novice questions, holding my hand when needed and pushing me for more when she thought it would enhance the manuscript. Susan made my book writing experience a pleasure and I look forward to our next project together.”

“…it is not an exaggeration to say none of this would have been possible without our super hero editor, Susan Carter. Her ability to streamline a wordy educator’s tendency to overstate is short of miraculous. What was most impressive about her editing is she approached the text with the sensitivity of a reader who expected to be moved and transformed by what she read. Therefore she kept us from gushing about our “exceptionality” and brought us back to the very human place where story resides—in being honest, vulnerable, and humble. This book is a testament to her generosity and exceptional work.”

“Your thoughtful questions and encouragement for me to dig deeper to share information that could help others meet similar challenges to my own took my book from being good to being great. Thanks for your perseverance.”

--Robert, memoir book author

“Your background in business and marketing was a real asset to reel in some of the tangents I was going off on during our interviews. After you helped me define my audience and message, I could tell people what the book was about in a single sentence instead of 3 or 4 paragraphs. I really appreciate your guidance in honing in on the content.”

--Daniel, business book author, national speaker, entrepreneur

“Susan was instrumental in the release of my book. She approached the developmental process from the reader’s perspective to ensure the book’s content stayed true to my message. When I was too close to content, she could pull me "out of the weeds" to gain a clearer perspective. Susan has a great understanding of the publishing process and industry—helping to get my book published in two countries! Her suggestions and recommendations made the book more marketable to multiple audiences. I would highly recommend her.”

--Amy S. Tolbert, Ph.D., author of Reversing the Ostrich Approach to Diversity: Pulling your head out of the sand; speaker, trainer and founder of ECCO International
