Jane Mackay

I write books for other people and I'm obsessed with mountains. Professionally, for fifteen years -- as a copy editor and more recently as a ghostwriter -- I have found joy, purpose, and great inner reward in helping people tell their stories, share their expertise, and express themselves well through the written word. Personally, in September 2021 I did my first mountain race (in the Swiss Alps, no less!): 32km with 2100m of total elevation gain. As a ghostwriter and book coach, I work with subject matter experts, industry professionals and mountain athletes to bring their book into the world. At Uphill Athlete, I moderate The Female Uphill Athlete forum and zap spam.
