Drive your success with Winning Words
Welcome to Winning Words by leadership ghostwriter Lee Reeder. I write books and articles with high-level executives in a variety of industries. I have deep, diverse experience in writing, editing, marketing, and editorial management. My specialties include book ghostwriting, environmental analysis and writing, editorial management, public outreach, photography, design, professional education, grant writing, and non-profit management.
I serve as a ghostwriter for authors in many disciplines. I have particular expertise in environmental stewardship, and in all aspects of healthcare and health system management. In healthcare I have deep knowledge of organizational quality improvement, value-based patient care, consumerism in health care, healthcare management and leadership, patient safety, health equity, healthcare information technology, and electronic health records. In the environmental realm I am well-versed in water resources, mitigation, conservation, habitat restoration, water resources, water management reporting, watershed management, and environmental reporting and regulations.
Ghostwriting: A Misunderstood Art
“True ghostwriters don’t write for people, they write as them.”
The most common misconception about ghostwriting is that potential clients who approach a ghostwriter are doing so because they can’t write. Actually, this is almost never the case. Most of my ghostwriting clients are excellent writers. What they lack mostly is the time to devote to an article, blog posts or a book project. They are too busy doing what they love and what they do best, so they rely on me to do with them what I love and do best.
True ghostwriters don’t write for people, they write as them, making the “voice” come through in the writing. Capturing that essence–especially on book projects—takes a bit of time up front getting to know what the writer values, what their intentions and intended impacts are, how they speak to people when they are talking, what drives them, and what makes them satisfied, invigorated, happy and irritated. These elements and more all come together to create the “voice” through which the ghostwriter writes as the writer.
About Me
I am a writer, editor, editorial manager, ghostwriter, designer and photographer. In my career I have been a healthcare quality advocate and environmental steward, a newspaper beat reporter, and the top editor for community newspapers, international magazines, and healthcare leadership publications. I have served as editorial director for a multi-title publishing company, with responsibility for six emergency medical and fire-rescue publications. My experience also includes serving as a marketing director for an advertising agency, and as executive director for a non-profit environmental organization. As a freelancer I have provided editorial management services for periodical publishers. I have worked behind the scenes as a ghostwriter for several prominent leaders in the fields of leadership development, healthcare management and quality improvement, and psychological trauma care.
