Kira W.
Ghostwriter and Editor
I am the co-author of a bestselling young adult trilogy. As an editor, I have worked on digital content, book proposals, dissertations, screenplays, and fiction and nonfiction books, including a NY Times bestselling thriller, and I am currently a freelance editor for Grammarly's editing service. As a ghostwriter, I have written five additional novels, three nonfiction books, and two screenplays for private clients, in genres including young adult, science fiction, culture, self-help, and romance. I have created digital marketing copy for a software startup; SAT prep materials for a summer study camp; in-world text for a video game developer; and one-act plays for a Central New York youth theater company. I am a graduate of Cornell University, and live in Brooklyn, NY.
