Checking Your Ghostwriters References
Most writers will have some sort of references, but we’re cynical enough to suggest you rely more on the writing you see and your own “gut” about the person than on any references unless the references are people you already know and trust. We would say the same in a fulltime hiring situation.
If a ghostwriter or for that matter any potential vendor or employee had no references at all we’d be a little nervous, but we also have found that some of the worst contractors we’ve ever seen have great references, and some of the best can have very few.
When it comes to judging personality – just Use the Force! As you would in any other situation.
