Benny Incandenza
Bio
My name’s Benny Incandenza and I write books for a living. Mostly, these take the form of memoirs, novels, big idea books, and even the odd screenplay. Regardless of the genre or format your story takes, if it’s unique and compelling I want to help you turn it into a book you’re proud to publish. I’ve helped artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, politicians and more do just that.
In one way or another, this has always been my vocation. Long before I became a ghostwriter, I was helping people share their stories in the most honest and artful ways possible. Whether it was guiding students to find their voice while teaching poetry workshops at UC Berkeley, working as an international arts and culture journalist, or counseling guests to reframe their traumas and inner dialogs at a holistic treatment center in the Amazon Rainforest, for as long as I can remember I’ve been weaving narrative and form into the stories that spool out of a life.
Storytelling is the oldest technology we possess. I believe it might also be the most powerful. From the flickers of the primordial campfire to the ubiquitous glow of today’s screens, we’ve used stories to shed light on the mysteries and wonders of our world and of our selves. They hold the unique power to connect us to our past, our present, our future, and, most importantly, to each other. Thus, I don’t take the responsibility of helping someone tell their story—and tell it well—lightly. Every human being I’ve ever worked with—no, every human being on the planet—carries within them a story that if told in all its depth and vibrance could fill library after library. For me, nothing is as rewarding as the challenge of sculpting that beautiful complexity into books my authors feel do them justice.
I’ve put pen to paper, finger to keyboard, and bolt of sudden inspiration to crumpled-up napkin while living in big cities, small towns, and little villages all over the world. From the cobble-stone streets of Prague to the sidewalk cafes of Buenos Aires, from small villages in the Amazon to the urban jungles of London and New York City, I’ve honed both my craft as a writer and my curiosity as a student of the human tapestry. To every project I take on I bring a journalist’s finger-on-the-pulse awareness of what’s current, a beginner’s mindset cultivated by adapting to many diverse cultures, a poet’s out-of-the-box thinking, and an expert writer’s understanding of form, structure, and craft—all filtered through a truly global lens.
Currently, you can find me writing or walking in Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, or the mountains just above Cusco.
