Avoid Ghostwriting Competitions

Probably the worst way to select a ghostwriter is to contact several and then ask them to participate in a ghostwriting competition by writing a few sample pages that can be "judged" against each other.  Professional ghostwriters have nothing to do with such an amateurish approach since they are top-tier ghostwriters who work for best-selling authors and those who are experts in their fields.  A top-level ghostwriter doesn't have time to compete with low-level writers who are moonlighters or inexperienced when it comes to penning a full-length book.  For a professional ghostwriter, it's a waste of time and money.

Find the right ghostwriter for you by doing your research, examining the ghostwriter's credentials, looking at his work, and speaking to him on the phone.  A professional ghostwriter doesn't participate in the Hollywood cattle-call.
