About Richard Lowe
Richard Lowe is a professional ghostwriter, book coach, and author based in Safety Harbor, Florida. He writes books for executives, founders, coaches, and business owners who have a book to publish and no realistic path to writing it themselves. He has authored 113+ books under his own name. For clients, he has ghostwritten 54+ books, 24+ of them memoirs. That makes him one of the more prolific working ghostwriters in the field.
The short version. Richard Lowe spent 33 years in enterprise technology, including 20 years as Director of Computer Operations and Technical Services at Trader Joe’s. He now ghostwrites books full time. Because he ran large operations before he wrote about them, his technical and business judgment comes from doing the work.
What does Richard Lowe do?
Three services make up what Richard Lowe offers. He ghostwrites full-length books, working directly with the client from first interview through final manuscript. For authors who intend to write the book themselves and want a professional guiding the structure and the process, he offers coaching, and he also coaches writers on craft.
There is no roster, no project manager, and no junior writer behind a senior name. The person who takes the interviews is the person who writes the manuscript. That is the whole model, and it is the reason the practice produces excellent books.
How long a book takes, how many words it runs, how many interview hours go into it and what happens after the manuscript is handed over are set out on Ghostwriting by the Numbers.
Who does Richard Lowe write for?
Executives, founders, coaches, consultants, and business owners building authority on the strength of a book. Memoir and business nonfiction are the two largest categories. One client’s book raised $30 million in venture capital. That is the clearest evidence that a well-built business book does commercial work instead of sitting on a shelf.
The practice carries 42 documented case studies and 43 client reviews, many of them on video. Clients are confidential unless they have cleared their names, so the case studies describe the role and the goal instead of the person.
