Ghostwriting
Ghostwriting
is a relatively new genre of writing in India, but exists largely
in the west. To that effect ghostwriters are also well paid. For
those not familiar with he term ghostwriting; it is that type
of writing work whereby one is required to compile works of literature
under the guidance of the original writer.
By
original writer is meant the one who is actually working on the
book or film or any other form of word compilation. For instance,
there are a number of people who wish to write their autobiography,
but may lack in time or ability to compile the work in the word
form. They record all that they want to put into the book and
then have it transcribed and formulated by the ghostwriter, who
may or may not take credit for their role in bringing the book
in its complete version.
Like
for books ghostwriting is also required for film scripts and television
scripts. In such situations a concept is provided and the ghostwriter
is required to expand on it and put the script and screenplay
together. In most cases the ghostwriters do not get any acknowledgements
or credit mention, but are made substantially well.
