The Profitable Writer Matthew Harms on the Inner Workings of the Ghostwriting Business
I’ve been a full-time ghostwriter for the last few years. Although I have much respect for all writers, I have a special place in my heart for ghostwriters. We do a very specialized type of work, and it’s always a fun day when I get to talk shop with another ghostwriter.
That’s why I’m excited to bring you this conversation with my friend and fellow ghostwriter, Matthew Harms.
Matthew is a New York-born-and-based ghostwriter and author coach who founded Penforhire in 2019. It has been said that everyone has a story to tell, but unfortunately most go through life thinking theirs will never be read since they struggle with knowing how to turn their story into a compelling book.
As a lifelong writer, Matthew has learned from and adapted his various experiences in fields such as finance, project management, and real estate to help those with the desire to use their words to make the world a better place. In the ghostwriting space, he prides himself on providing a voice for the voiceless, working with clients who have a message of growth or inspiration.
Matthew is also the author of Grow Up: No, Really and Employed: A Career Readiness Manual, books designed to help people enrich their lives through basic life skills and career readiness training. When he is not focused on helping others, Matthew’s other passions are writing works of fiction, both novels and screenplays, and spending time with his children.
For this interview, I didn’t have an agenda—my goal was just to have a fun conversation with a fellow ghostwriter. You’ll learn lots of secrets about the ghostwriting business and inner workings of how we think. I also had a chance to learn some valuable real estate investing tips from Matthew!
