David Safford

Bio

I write books that transform people’s stories into assets for eternal impact.

As a ghostwriter and Christ follower, I love partnering with authors of all backgrounds to transform their lived experiences, leadership, sufferings, triumphs, expertise, and legacies into books that readers love.

Whether you’re building a message-driven business, sharing your cherished values, or preserving your or your family’s story for future generations, I bring compassion, narrative skill, and spiritual discernment to every project I’m honored to be a part of.

Who I Work With:

My clients include a broad range of individuals in varying industries and from wildly diverse backgrounds.

My very first client was a Black single mother in her mid-twenties; my most recent client is an immigrant pastor who is excited to translate his book into Arabic so he can evangelize his Muslim-American community members.

I consider it an honor to listen to my clients and study not just their spoken tendencies, but their hearts. Writing isn’t just about parroting; it’s about elevating. God has given me a rare gift to do just that, and it is my mission to steward that gift wisely.

My clients represent a wide variety of professions, including: Business leaders, consultants, pastors, missionaries, entrepreneurs, nonprofit founders, and everyday men and women who’ve experienced extraordinary things.

What I Write:

As a ghostwriter, I specialize in the following types of books:

• Memoir
• Legacy
• Business (Authority Assets)
• Self-Help
• Christian
• Advocacy

Regardless of genre, everything I write is designed to serve your reader’s needs. My work builds trust, demonstratesauthority, and multiplies impact, regardless of genre.

What Makes Me Different:

I specialize in capturing your voice and organizing source material into strong narrative structure. Along the way, I’m able to uncover deep truths that not only make a book unforgettable, but leave a lasting impression on the reader.

Clients often tell me I have a “God-given ear” for their voice, and that my ability to draw out what matters most leads to a finished book that feels not only personal, but purposeful.

I have done this for dozens of past clients, and I’m confident I can do it for you!

Client Reviews:

“David was able to tap into my train of thought so easily. It was as if we had been friends our whole lives. There were times throughout the process that he would complete my thoughts or even better, evoke the thoughts that I didn’t even know I was thinking until they were written down. He was so fun to work with and encouraged me to stay focused on my relationship with God.”
