Karey Mackin

After two decades in traditional and online publishing, there are only a few projects attached to my name. I am a ghostwriter specializing in books, popular blog series, well-received speeches, and social outpourings for others.

As my youngest daughter once described it, "My mum makes other people sound better than they are."

My best trick is adopting my clients' vocabularies and tone, perfecting their content, and then turning up their volumes.

Ghostwriting has been the perfect career to carry-on my family's diplomatic postings, from Oman to Jordan and Indonesia. I crave steamy weather, unusual restaurant menus, and useful foreign words. Like raksasa, which means giant in Indonesia.

Currently writing from Williamsburg. (Not the cool one. Williamsburg, Virginia.)
