How The Voice-Matching Process Works
The biggest concern authors have about ghostwriting is that the finished book won't sound like them. We address that directly at intake: structured interviews, listening to how you naturally tell stories, and reviewing any existing writing samples, so the manuscript reflects your actual voice, vocabulary, and rhythm rather than a generic ghostwriter's default style. Draft chapters are shared early specifically so voice can be corrected before the whole manuscript is written that way, rather than discovering a mismatch after 200 pages are already drafted.
Interviews can happen by phone, video call, or in person depending on what's easiest for you, and we're comfortable working from messy source material, half-finished notes, voice memos recorded in the car, or a rough outline scribbled on a napkin. Structure is something we build together, not something you're expected to bring already finished before we start.
Sensitive material, memoir especially, is handled with the same discretion throughout. If your story touches on difficult personal history, that's treated as part of the craft of the interview process, not a detail to rush past on the way to the next chapter.
