She’s written 24 books, many of them critically acclaimed, four of them Sunday Times Bestsellers and one of them in just three weeks, but you’ve probably never heard of her. Shannon Kyle is a ghost-writer.
Ghost-writing has long been publishing’s best-kept secret. An estimated ninety per cent of memoirs and non-fiction books on bestseller lists have been written by ghost-writers, yet few readers knew this. But times are changing. Thanks to a number of high profile stories the veil of secrecy has been lifted and now we are getting to know the mysterious ghosts behind some of Britain’s biggest bestsellers. Shannon has written for numerous celebrities, but as she explains in this fascinating insight into her life, it's telling extraordinary stories of ordinary people that inspires her most.
Shannon is co-creator of The Ghostwriters Agency with Teena Lyons about six months ago. https://www.theghostwritersagency.com The UK's first online platform that matches bestselling and award winning ghostwriters with clients who want to write books.
She also has her own podcast called Giving Up the Ghostcast, where she interviews bestselling ghostwriters about their experiences.
