From the pov of one who’s been hired as a ghostwriter, I’d agree that rights are paramount in this agreement. Yes, the author (the one who hires the ghost and whose name will be on the cover) can specify that he owns all rights and future rights — that’s fine. But with this ownership the final responsibility for any copyright liability must also remain with the copyright holder — the author. I’ve seen author/ghost agreements fall apart because of this detail.

I always wondered about this whole profession… what it would take, why some do it with no public mention, doesn’t personal chemistry make a difference…
Thanks for filling in the business side of the equation.

Great list – simple, yet comprehensive.
