Ghostmasters 101: How to Break into the Business of Ghostwriting
The Andy Awards for Nonfiction Book Collaboration™ honor the spirit of collaboration—the AND—in nonfiction book writing. The only award for ghostwriters and paid collaborators, the awards are jointly presented by Gotham Ghostwriters and the American Society of Journalists and Authors, bringing collaboration out of the shadows and into a well-deserved spotlight.
Both Author and Paid Collaborator must jointly submit the book for consideration and agree to share the award.
