How to Be a Best-Selling Author Without Writing a Word!

How to Be a Best-Selling Author Without Writing a Word!

Unbelievable but true. As they say, "Truth is stranger than fiction."

Pamela Anderson is now the New York Times best-selling author of "A Star: A Novel", which she didn't even write.

When asked about her literaray inspiration, she says: "I don't read novels."

Behind the book is obviously someone - a ghostwriter. The 204-page novel was completed in 28 days.

What it means for ghostwriters is that there is a world of opportunities for them. There are good customers they can write for - people with fame like celebrites and politicians, people with fortune (those who makes a lot of money but don't have the time to write), and people with a life-time worth of wisdom.

And there are people who are on their deathbed. Wouldn't it be all in vain to see their lifetime memories, experience and knowledge buried with them and lost forever?

Ghostwriters play wonderful roles. They are keepers of memories. They make people famous. They change the world - one reader at a time.

Behind every great book is an author.
