Ghostmasters 101: How to Break into the Business of Ghostwriting

Madeleine Morel

Madeleine Morel is President of 2M Communications Ltd, an agency that only represents ghostwriters. We only work with leading writer/collaborators who have ghosted multiple books for the Big Five publishing houses. Each writer specializes in today’s major non-fiction areas of growth: health, parenting, memoir/autobiography, business, pop-culture, spirituality, cookbooks, science, sports, and multicultural topics. As an agency, we take a 15% commission.

Ninety-five percent of our business is with the leading literary agencies and publishers in the United States.

2M Communications’ writers have resulted in over 70 New York Times Bestsellers, several of which were No. 1. We have been featured in Fortune, Wall Street Journal, Publisher’s Weekly, The New York Times, Financial Times, Entertainment Weekly, NPR, and other media outlets.
