We’re Barry Fox and Nadine Taylor, memoir ghostwriters who view the creation of your memoir or autobiography as a labor of love.
As master storytellers, we’ll weave your life adventures into a fascinating memoir that captivates, informs, and moves your readers.
We’ve had the pleasure of writing and ghostwriting many memoirs and autobiographies.
These include:
- the inside story of Princess Diana’s final days on Earth.
- the roller-coaster life of a penniless couple who built a $2-billion dollar oil business.
- a gritty look at a Black woman who survived apartheid with her hope and faith intact.
As memoir ghostwriters, our greatest joy is turning the process of writing a memoir into a journey of self-discovery for the author – while creating a captivating memoir or autobiography readers simply can’t put down.
What clients say about us
“Working with Barry became a journey of self-discovery, resulting in a much better book than I ever could have written on my own…”
“Thanks, Nadine, for encouraging me, for keeping me on track, and especially for your friendship. You have made this journey fun.”
“Barry Fox has an uncanny ability to understand what’s important and what’s not; to make you think more deeply about your life and come up with insights you didn’t know you had; and to transform your stories, ideas and feelings into writing that is not only beautiful but highly readable.”
“Nadine became a writer, therapist, literary critic, and friend, all rolled into one. Writing the book with Nadine was a wonderful experience that we recommend to all!”

Memoir “Detective”
Being professional memoir ghostwriters often requires us to be sleuths.
For one memoir, we spent several days in Louisiana, visiting the author’s previous homes, schools, and other important sites so we could get a feel for the places and people we would be writing about.
We’ve also traipsed through a steel processing plant; studied diagrams of yachts and Parisian apartments; sorted through hundreds of old photos and documents; visited galleries; studied Chinese and Czech history; sought out background information from university professors; and interviewed people from around the world, sometimes with the help of interpreters.
Publication Assistance
Writing your memoir is a huge undertaking, but it doesn’t stop there. The next challenge is getting it published.
Many of our clients have asked us to help with self-publishing their memoirs. Their needs can vary quite a bit: we’ve helped with everything from simply finding a printer to overseeing the publication of a beautiful, hardback, two-volume boxed set.
We’ve also shepherded books, including Diana & Dodi: A Love Story, through the standard publication process.
Do You Need Ghostwriting Help?
Some people may be able to write insightful, delightful memoirs all on their own. Others will need assistance.
You may not know whether you’re one of the former or the latter until you’re well into the work. You can, however, consider a few questions before beginning.
Can you think thematically?
Can you select the best structure?
Are you willing to sacrifice your favorite stories?
Do you have a passion for writing?
Do you have the time to dedicate to your memoir?
Yes? No?
If your answer to all of the above is yes, you might be able to produce a wonderful memoir on your own. If not, you should hire a memoir ghostwriter.
