Looking for a ghostwriter or biographer? Thanks for thinking of me.

I enjoy working as a biographer, ghostwriter, or co-author. Most of my biography work has been in the entertainment field, and I've assisted with all sorts of memoirs and practical nonfiction books. 

My basic bio is here, but you can e-mail me for a more detailed résumé. In short, I'm the author of 18 books, with a 19th on the way, and their categories include: celebrity biography, parenting, Christian memoir, true crime, self-help, health, psychology, and reference. I've worked with many top publishers, and editors tend to take me with them when they play musical chairs. 

I'm a mom, and I live in New York. 

Rather than telling you all the great stuff about why I'm so easy to work with and what a super writer I am, I'll let other people talk for me. Here you have it: 

Recommendations

“Since her stellar work on The Marilyn Monroe Treasures, Jenna is the type of writer I am always trying to find projects for. She is an editor’s joy: she consistently produces fresh, clean, and compelling prose, meets every deadline, and pours herself wholeheartedly into the success of the project. I would recommend Jenna instantly to anyone looking for a strong and flexible writer for any subject.”

--Meghan Cleary, editor, becker&mayer!  

“Jenna Glatzer is a dream author to work with.  She has an innate sense of collaboration in all respects and is eager to please.  Her flexibility and passion makes her the perfect choice for high profile projects. I know this is the first of many books we’ll do together.”

--Sharlene Martin, Martin Literary Management

“Jenna Glatzer’s strengths lie not only in her remarkably accessible and personable writing style, but also in her ability to take the initiative in promoting and marketing her work. We at Nomad have voted her our favorite author. She’s a strong and vibrant writer, and never misses a deadline. She accepts constructive criticism with an open mind, revises with ease, and is incredibly easy to work with. She’s about as enthusiastic a person as you may ever meet, and we hope to work with her for many projects to come.”

--Lauri Berkenkamp, editor, Nomad Press

"Thank you for your excellent work on Unthinkable by Scott Rigsby. The manuscript you created made our job here simple and straightforward. Yes, I would expect that from a professional writer, but no, I do not take it for granted. I greatly appreciate it."

--Dave Lindstedt, Senior Editor, Tyndale House Publishers

“Never in my life have I wanted a journalist, a writer, to talk to me again. It’s hard for me to open up and trust. This is the first time I called to say, ‘I want to see her. Ask her if she wants to see me again.’ There’s something about you.”

--Céline Dion, Céline Dion: For Keeps (Andrews McMeel)

“I couldn’t stop reading the manuscript. It’s so well written, so good. It was really emotional for me at some times to read what you had written. You captured Céline so well and I’m really proud of you for doing that. I just wanted to thank you.”

--Rene Angelil, Céline Dion's husband and manager

“I knew Jenna Glatzer was going to be a good writer, but I just didn’t know HOW good. She was and is absolutely amazing to work with. She brings obvious skill to the table, but she also does things the right way. She is always timely and professional.  I thought this project was going to be laborious and seemingly impossible, but she made it happen. Her skill, insight, relentless work ethic, and positive attitude guided the project along smoothly. After my initial conversations with Jenna, I knew a great book would be produced, but what I didn’t know was that I would gain an even better friend.”

--Jamie Blyth, Fear is No Longer My Reality (McGraw-Hill)  

“Our nocturnal word wizard, Jenna Glatzer, brought depth, experience, and laughter to this project. No one could dream of a better contributing writer.”

--Jeremy Groll, MD and Lorie Groll, Fertility Foods (Fireside)

“My choice in a co-writer could not have been more on the mark. Jenna Glatzer is a fabulous person and writer. She was able to take volumes of material, discussions, and information and synthesize it into words that made this process feel easy when compared to my first book. Her experiences and passion about this topic, her talent and style made me enjoy this work so much more than I already do. Although I knew Jenna was the right one to partner with from the beginning, my respect and admiration for her continue to grow.”

--Joel Haber, Ph.D., Bullyproof Your Child for Life (Avery/Penguin)

“I know in my heart that God hand picked you to help write His story and the role that I played in it. You did an amazing job. I could not have done it without you. I treasure the time we spent together. I am so blessed to have worked with you, but even more blessed to have made a friend in you for life.”

“Jenna has given me a newfound hope on life. The story I needed to share with the world needed a lot of work! I knew she was perfect from the first telephone conversation. After many talks and e-mails, we finally met in person. I appreciated her professionalism to stay on task throughout my stay, which could not have been so easy with me. My story is my lifeline; without it I would be lost. I will never be able to thank her enough for helping me to help others. I never realized what it took to become the successful author that she is. What touches my heart the most is to witness the wonderful mom she is to her little girl. I am proud and honored to call Jenna my friend.”
