Welcome to my ghostwriting page!
I am a scribbler of other people’s books, both fiction and non, and have been doing so since 2010, while writing my own novels since about 1996, and with a MS in Physics. If you need a book written, I’m the go-to guy.
Are you a businessman looking to brand yourself an expert in your field? There is no better way than with a book displaying your expertise. Or perhaps you have a real life story you want told; something about an experience you went through that you need to share with others as a warning or inspiration. Maybe you want to educate people, or lend your advice about a given topic. Whatever the need, I can help you bring it to fruition.
Here are just a few of the nonfiction topics that I have written for:
- Business
- Financial and Investment, including Bit-Coin
- Crowd-funding
- Insurance
- Real estate
- Asset protection
- CEOs and leadership
- Medical (on some pretty out of the ordinary varieties)
- Health and fitness
- Health care system
- Learning and Education
- Physics and science
- Religious
- Self-improvement
- Life planning
- Relationships
- Diet, meal planning, and cook books (including a special needs cook book)
- Metaphysics, including “Manifesting” as connected to quantum mechanics
- Biographies and true-life stories
- Qigong
- and more.
Or maybe you have a fiction story in mind; that great novel from the limits of your imagination, that dream you’ve always wanted to see in print. Whether it’s a simple tale or multi-book saga, I can bring it to vibrant life. I know how to put emotions on a page, can craft entire worlds, and handle dozens of characters and multiple plot threads. Whatever it is, I can handle it.
The fiction I’ve written ranges any combination of fantasy and science-fiction, including:
- Cyberpunk
- YA
- Dark fantasy
- Epic
- Steampunk
- Urban Fantasy
- AI
- Lycanthropes
- Mythic
- Futuristic detective noir
- Time travel
- And innumerable other sub-genres.
Not SF or Fantasy? Well, to me a story is a story, so just tell me what it is and I’ll make it live.

If you need a good Ghost, then let’s talk.
Portfolio
Need to see some samples? Well, being as this is also the site for my own fictional pursuits, you can find a few posted samples if you just back up to http://www.maldene.com. They’re taken from my first Maldene and Cyberdawn novels (no client stuff ever posted as all are covered by NDAs). Here’s the direct links to what’s currently posted:

More samples available upon request from these and others of my novels. You can also go to my Amazon Author’s Page to see all of my current releases.
My Rates
First off, when I mention ‘Page’ here, this assumes the standard 250 words per page. Page count is a rough estimate by client and confirmed by myself based on our initial conversation together.
That said, here are the general categories that I use. Which one a given client’s project falls into is an assessment arrived at after an initial conversation with the client on what he wants, what he already has done, and basically how much work it sounds like I’m in for. My goal is come to a price that is fair to the both of us, and once a deal is arrived it, it does not change; the book may end up running longer or shorter than normal but the agreed-upon price remains the same (more insentive on my part to get jan accurate assessment).
- Level 1: Heavy editing and reworking
First draft of manuscript is already supplied by client, but it needs major reworking, developmental editing, and rewriting.
Price: $75/page
- Level 2: Full Write
Outline and notes supplied by client but no draft of the manuscript, will need to interview client on details of book, development work before writing, and actual writing of book.
Price: $100/page
- Level 3: Full Package
No outline supplied by client but he does have a few notes and general idea of what he wants. I must outline and prep the book, characters, all development work, interview/talk with client on details, and write the book.
Price: $120/page
*For books to be longer than an estimated 600 pages (150,000 words), price must be individually negotiated.
*For projects with a notable time limit (i.e.: rush job), add 20% to all prices.
In all cases, I will supply weekly in-progress updates of current drafts to the client so as to get his feedback, then at end of the first fully completed draft client gets two last edits of the full draft based on his feedback.
An NDA is part of the final contract, but even before that I assume that one is in force during negotiations.
So if you need a book written, you know where to go.
