Professional ghostwriter with a mission
Paula Thayrow is a professional ghostwriter with a love for all things personal growth taught through books and ebooks.
Paula Thayrow is living her life purpose of enabling people with a story in personal growth; a strategy, a narration, a manual, or just a book or ebook packed with information, to set it out in written form and in the best prose possible.
She delights in helping the spiritually awake, the recently-awakened, the only now-rubbing-their-eyes to wakefulness, and the what-is-this-wakefulness-thing-anyways wandering soul, to package their information using best editorial practices.
There are two kinds of people with untold stories that are longing to get them out. If you are one of these two, speak with me:
Either you have a book to write but are too busy to do it yourself, or
You know that you have a story, but not the skill to write your own ebook or ebook.
It's for you that I am here; together we will bring your book alive.

A bit of background...
What can I write?
Paula can ghostwrite a number of book genres efficiently; corporate and professional reports properly referenced, company and research journals, fiction books (selectively), but her best place is in developing life changing Self Growth ebooks.
You will find in her articles on ghostwriting an education to help you understand how to work with a ghostwriter correctly; your rights, the parameters of that relationship, and the possible costs for a ghostwriting job. She is ready to answer any other questions about ghostwriting that you may have.
Who is Paula?
Paula started her career in books and publishing about 14 years ago writing for magazines. She moved on to work as Head of Public Relations in Government (Kenya) overseeing all external-bound information from the Medical Research Institute including publishing of scientific journals and periodicals. She further oversaw creation, development, and final publishing of all publicity materials and all newspaper mentions of the Institute.
Thereafter, she moved into the book publishing world where she worked as an Editorial Advisor at Oxford University Press (OUP). The Publishing house would scout for writers – mainly people who had the facts but no writing skill whatsoever – and hand them over to her to figure out how those facts would become a book.
The best part of that job was to start with pieces of paper and scribbled notes in a potential author's notebook (at one point, she actually dealt with authors who would write their idea on tissue paper. Probably it was something about the 'bathroom' being a place of great inspiration, tickle…) and move those all the way to a draft, and eventually (after about eight months to a year) the book would be on the shelves in a bookshop.
That experience brought Paula where she is because it gave her a chance to understand that her love, joy and pleasure is in books.
Why does Paula write?
Nothing thrills her more than the process that moves a book through its various stages all the way to the bookshop (and in our times the website) shelves.

High wisdom: There is no limit to what a man can do, or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit. Robert Woodruff
Timeless value: Until one is committed there is hesitating, the chance to draw back, (there is) always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans. That the moment one definitely commits oneself, Providence moves, too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Johan Wolfgang Von Goethe
You love to get things done, you like working with people who like to get things done, you have an ebook that you desire to 'get done' and you are looking for someone to 'get it done'… speak to me.
I have only one desire – to make sure the ebook or book idea you have becomes a book or an ebook people can read in the shortest time possible.
Let's get it done!
