ABOUT GENE SHANNON
It’s hard to tell your story. There are a million things you want to say, but how do you know what’s important, what’s compelling and what you’re leaving out?That’s where I come in. As an experienced ghostwriter and editor, I work with you to find the right things to say, in the right order (with just the right tone). I help you identify your ideal reader and what they expect to hear from you. I take the mystery out of how to make a great book. Together we build a clear plan that takes you from concept to published manuscript in 6-9 months through structured interviews, collaborative outlining, and iterative drafts (without taking over your life).Books are exceptional tools for sharing your vision with depth and nuance. If you’re a speaker or a business leader, a great book will increase your authority and transform your business. If you want to tell your personal story, a book is the best way to share how you see it.I’ve worked with entrepreneurs, athletes and top-level speakers to deliver books that have quickly become #1 Amazon bestsellers. For others, their book has become a treasured part of their legacy to share with friends, family and colleagues. People I work with appreciate my professionalism, my insights and my eye for structure and compelling anecdotes. We also usually have a lot of fun together. I’d love to hear about the book you really want to write. Together we can make it a reality.
