Anthony has been key to developing my writing career. He has been, and continues to be, a mentor, a trusted intellectual mind that holds thoughts and words with care and insight. Yet he sees, not merely the written text, but the soul and spirit that is behind every passage that emerges from a writers deepest parts....His attention to detail, his vast vocabulary, his eye for the tiniest elements of structure, character, even grammar and punctuation leave no stone unturned in his quest to deliver perfection to a client. He makes me look good! I have been working with Dr Shaker for about two years and will continue to work with him, if he will, on many projects to come.

Let Your Writing Stand Out
This is a ghostwriting and editing service you can depend on for skill, flexibility, and literary resources. Don’t take unnecessary risks with your personal or business project.

  • Without well-honed writing skills to create a book or an effective marketing copy, you can’t expect others to take notice of you. What good is it to be a fountainhead of great ideas if you’re invisible?

  • Without an effective business voice that conveys decisiveness and authority, how can you expect people to buy into your ideas?

I turn inspiration into masterpieces, for fees that all my clients appreciate. And I’ll never charge you for anything besides what our signed agreement clearly stipulates.

 

 

 

Content Quality & Your Needs Come First

Other web sites will promise you much they can’t deliver, and you end up paying many times more than what you get in return.

So, go ahead and hire the cheapest assembly-line ghostwriting service or editor on the Internet. Only, brace yourself. Some of them will sell you anything under the sun for a pittance! Just don’t expect a Cadillac if you only pay for a…1978 LeManz—which wasn’t the worst model back then, but…

Listen, you came to this site for a reason.

I promise not to sell you a fridge if you live in an igloo. I'll design your project with a budget that fits exactly the job you need done.

 

 

 

 

You have more hidden inside you

than you may think

 

So, don't belittle yourself.

 

My goal is to help you find exactly the right words and voice in which to express it. I'll even help you select a literary agent. I'm not one myself, so I'll never charge you for this service, which I offer strictly as a courtesy—my final contribution to your success.

 

The ghost writer you hire shouldn't be just a faceless writer-for-hire. He or she has to be your writer.

 

Don't take risks with just anybody who happens to advertise writing skills. I will turn your inspiration into a masterpiece ready for publication. My work is so well appreciated that almost all my clients return for more projects and/or recommend my services.
