Two years ago, Connor Gleim became the world’s most famous and successful ghostwriter. Before the death of Nicholas Walsh, Gleim brilliantly ghostwrote his autobiography I Am Nicholas Walsh, and is now here to deliver to you his own autobiography. Within this book, you will travel to the past with Gleim as he retells stories of his life as they relate to how he became a ghostwriter. From starting his high school’s biggest food fight to ghostwriting the lyrics to TLC’s hit song Waterfalls, The Ghostwriter’s Ghostwriter: How I Became A Ghostwriter’s Ghostwriter (A True Story) will take you inside the ghostwriting world and haunt you the entire way.
I was all over the place with picking a rating for this very short book, 128 pages in large print. It started great I was thinking it would get 4-5 stars, then it started to get weird and frustrating, falling to 2-3 stars and once I was finished I felt 1 star was about all I could muster. I mostly felt disappointed that this book shed no real light on ghostwriting outside of its a thing and supposedly this guy does it, I did go ahead and give it 2.5 stars based on the stronger first half of the story about his childhood. To be honest I would of been fine with not learning anything new about ghostwriting if the whole book had been as good as the first bit, but it almost seemed someone else came in and rushed to finish the book, it felt all wrong, almost like he had someone else (an amateur ghostwriter perhaps) finish up his story after high-school.
