Proposed FBC 13!!!
How does this look? Any suggestions? Questions? I have a list of alternates also available. I really liked the Ghostwriter suggestion @gillic, but I had trouble finding a good list of them. Do you have a good list? If so we can change it over to that one from Paranormal/horror/scary book.

Re: Proposed FBC 13!!!
my read shelf:
Kate's Recipe Box || Relatively Bookish
ETA: How about changing it to a book by a favorite author?
I was doing some googling and was wondnering what the line is between ghost writing and using a pen name?
I'm thinking of authors that publish under two names - Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb, JK Rowling/Robert Gabraith.
