Ghost-writing

I have ghost-written a book on Japanese culture published by a major UK publisher. The book has been translated into eight languages.

I would highly recommend Matt as a talented and reliable ghostwriter who is an absolute pleasure to work with. He writes to a very high standard and also takes feedback on board easily.
