Time moves fast. Memories fade faster.
Right now, you know time is precious, and someday, you won’t be just a phone call away. How do you want the people you love most to remember you? Will they rely on fading memories, or will they have your stories, wisdom, and advice preserved forever for generations to come?
The truth is: your autobiography has the power to be your spokesperson
It can paint a vivid picture for your grandkids, revealing the places, moments, and lessons that shaped your life.
It can be the steady hand your kids reach for when life’s storms hit hard, offering the strength and hope to push through, just as you did.
And it can also help your loved ones feel thankful again, especially when they forget how far your family has come.
Plus, even if you've never graced magazine covers or spoken on global stages...
.There are still people, aside from your family, who’d love to learn the truth about your life—told in your own words.
- Close Friends who’ve watched your story unfold and would love to see how you recall the moments they know all too well.
- Employees/Junior colleagues who’ve always wondered how you became the kind yet capable leader they look up to.
- Mentees eager to finally hear the full stories behind the lessons you’ve shared in bits and pieces.
- Industry Peers who never get tired of learning from someone who’s actually walked the walk.
But to share your story in a way that truly inspires, it has to be written in a clear, heartfelt, and engaging way. And that’s what I’m here for!
Reserve Your Spot Now! Your story deserves to be told right, and with only one project at a time, you’ll have my full attention for 4 months.

Most times, it’s the kids who hire me to help their parents share their stories.
Hiya,
I don’t have a PhD in English. I never dreamed of being a writer as a kid, and ghostwriting wasn’t part of the plan while earning my BSc and MSc.
But now, I get to sit with incredible people in their golden years, helping them relive their journeys and capture their stories in their own words—while they still can.
Listening to their stories makes me think about how today’s choices build tomorrow’s memories. And when I hear how their kids talk about them, I’m reminded that a parent’s love and actions leave deep marks, often in ways they never see.
So, if you think I just might be the best person to help mum or dad write an autobiography, rest assured that I’d be happy to make the process one that matches their vision and brings your family closer.
You can learn more about me HERE
Am I your ghostwriter?
Yes if...
- You're willing to share personal stories, even the hard ones, and reflect deeply on past experiences.
- You understand that writing a compelling autobiography takes time, thought, and professional skill.
- For you an autobiography isn’t a vanity project but a legacy gift for family and future generations.
- You're willing to honor our contract.
No if...
- You refuse to open up or intend to give very little context or emotional depth, making it difficult for me to shape a compelling narrative.
- You'll be unavailable for interviews and wouldn't give feedback in a timely manner thus causing the project to drag on.
- You view you ghostwriter as a typist and not as a creative collaborator whose expertise will lead to a more compelling book.
- You think your autobiography will turn you into an overnight celebrity.
One day your voice will go silent but
your stories can still speak
A will or trust fund can’t capture the heart of who you are.
Your autobiography can.
I’d be honored to help you write one you’re proud of.
ALL YOUR Qs, Ad.
Each autobiography project runs for a maximum of 16-weeks/4 months (to complete a books not longer than 35,000 words). Any delays in writing that are caused by a client’s delays in providing required information or feedback will incur an additional charge of $500 for every additional month.
35,000 words. Your book can be shorted than this but not longer. The goal is to write an engaging yet concise book that preserves the memories, values, and lessons that have shaped you.
There are 2 payment options, you can either make:
1. Full payment, or
2. Two-installment payments: One before the project begins, and the second after you receive the first draft of all chapters.
There are no refunds.
You’re encouraged to sign up with the intention to commit because once a time slot has been reserved for you, it means others have to wait.
**Please note if you choose the installment option, your deliverables won’t be fulfilled until your payment is complete. Thank you.
Now 😉
I work with only 1 Ghostwriting client at a time and the slot is on a first-come, first-served basis. Sometimes you may find space within the next month, but it’s best to expect a 2-month waitlist.
Here’s how it works:
I’ll review your application and get back to you within 72 hours. If we’re a good fit, I’ll share my availability, send over a contract, and give you a link to my calendar so you can book a time for us to talk before you make payment.
Once payment is made, we’ll schedule a Project Kickoff call to discuss your vision, confirm which family members I should interview, and how to reach them.
Every deliverable and due date will be clearly outlined in the contract, and by the end of 16 weeks, your manuscript will be polished, edited, and ready. It’s your story, your message, and your legacy.
Not a problem! Send an email to ify@ifeomanwekwo.com with a specific question about ghostwriting your autobiography. I’ll be waiting with answers
