Time for my daily overshare!
I was a ghostwriter for a long time. Long enough to have written 20 books no one will ever know came from me.
Today is the first day that I haven’t had an edge of guilt connecting with other writers.
I’m not a fraud. I’m a goddamned published author, & I did it my way

It takes nothing from the fact you are a WRITER. And, from what I've recently seen, a pretty damn good one.
I definitely don't consider you a fraud. You've written 20 books, for feck sakes! They may not have been your chosen subject, but you still wrote them.
You succeeded, maybe not in a conventional way but you did it!
I'm totally tell people I knew you before you were famous.
You are amazing and a brilliant artist. And don’t you let anyone tell you different.
The people who claimed to write the books you ghostwrote are the frauds
14 years is a lot ghostwriting career. I’m impressed by your ability to stick with it and the hard work required to keep your name in client lists.
Good for you!
Congratulations for owning even your hidden accomplishments.

This is them last week
But NaNoWriMo used to be a breeze 😂
Best of luck to you, & I look forward to being there for your journey
I’m a ghostwriter too… only one book I’ve penned has been published. One.
And it’s horrible.
(and you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.)
Perfect my grant writing skills.
Start to learn the ins and outs of running a business.
Grow my branding skills.
I started a goddamned discord, y’all (I have not looked at it in months but it’s THERE)
Keep rockin! <3
@thesharkqueen.com you have put in the work and you get to share your victories as much & as loudly as you want 💖
If people would judge that as arrogance, fine. That just means they're insecure and afraid to polish their shine, that shouldn't stop you from polishing yours! luv u shark mom <3
Thank you. Truly🖤
