Ghostwriting

Sounds spooky or eerie.

Ghostwriter is a professional writer who writes for somebody else.

There are many who require some documents , reports , essays or some biography to be written.These people may be pressed for time or they may not be capable of expressing themselves as a professional writer.Hence, they hire ghostwriters.The person may or may not acknowledge the ghostwriter for the work.The ghostwriter is paid but the name of the ghostwriter never appears in the work.Hence the word ghostwriter.

Many professional writers use ghostwriting as a source of income.It is lucrative but the writer must be able to compromise the fact that his name would never appear in the work.
