Dan Good

Bio

Dan enjoys helping people complete the book they’ve always wished to write but could never finish.

He got into book ghostwriting by way of journalism. After spending a decade working in some of the country’s biggest newsrooms, including the New York Post, ABC News, NBC News and the New York Daily News, Dan was burned out from the rat race and wanted to set his own schedule and spend more time with his son.

He’s since written or ghostwritten 30+ books, including four national bestsellers.

His book Playing Through the Pain, a biography about troubled baseball star Ken Caminiti, received a starred review from Publishers Weekly and was nominated for a CASEY Award as one of the year’s best baseball books.

Another well-received project involved his collaboration with author Jonathan Stanley, Purposeful Performance, which became a national bestseller in 2025 following a viral TikTok moment during a book signing that received coverage from NBC’s Today Show and the Washington Post.

Among Dan’s other ghostwriting projects:

• A memoir about remembering yourself following a Traumatic Brain Injury
• A family ancestry memoir story involving a DNA test that revealed a long-buried secret
• A true-crime project about a 1960s health-care serial killer
• A book about growing your business using YouTube videos
• A business & management book about the power of collaboration in corporate and personal relationships
• A business & management book about usage-based economics
• A business profile book about Microsoft’s founding, success and journey forward
• A project with a prominent school leader about their school’s history and path to flourishing following a crisis point
• A politics book written under a tight deadline
• A politics and legal project involving a lawsuit against a prominent politician
• A book with a sports team that overcame incredible odds to achieve national success
