A propos de l’auteur
ARIEL CURRY is a ghostwriter, bestselling editor, and book coach. She spent 10 years working in traditional publishing, most of that time as an acquisitions editor. Several of the books she edited and published have achieved Amazon bestseller status and have been bestsellers for the publisher. Some of her more notable clients include supermodel Genevieve Morton, winner of the TED $1 Million Prize for Research Sugata Mitra, education researcher John Hattie, Home Improvement writer and producer Matt Williams, and NYT bestselling author Warren Berger. Ariel specializes in a variety of nonfiction genres. As an editor and coach, she enjoys brainstorming and outlining new book ideas, bringing clarity and purpose to prose, and helping authors find resilience in their writing journey. Her favorite projects are those that tell a story of transformation-either the author’s transformation through an event or situation in their life, or the reader’s transformation in overcoming a problem. She loves working with authors who challenge the status quo and can shine light in the dark spaces of our world with powerful stories. When she’s not working, you can find Ariel doing yoga, practicing Chopin on the piano, or reading with a cup of coffee. Originally from California, she now lives in Chattanooga, TN, with her husband and a growing menagerie of pets.
