Memoirs of a Ghost

One Sheet Away

by Andrea Cagan
To be a ghostwriter means to work unseen—to hide in the shadows while others claim your words as their own. When a book is finished, you are a phantasm—a waft of literary smoke that dissolves into the ethers. I have lent my ghostwriting services to celebrities in every walk of life, including rock stars and movie stars, news anchors and divas, award-winning athletes and motivational speakers. Now, I’m telling my own story.

MEMOIRS OF A GHOST exposes readers to the secretive, fascinating world of ghostwriting, intertwined with my own extraordinary life experiences throughout significant historical eras.  A professional ballerina, author, researcher and world traveler, I’ve had a life every bit as amazing as that of my most interesting client. My work has resulted in multiple best sellers over the years.
