Australian author Liam Pieper's has his work all over bookstores across the Tasman- but they've typically never featured his name.
Pieper's been behind several bestselling celebrity memoirs, but as a ghost-writer his name doesn’t appear on the cover and he gets absolutely no public credit for the book’s success.
His new novel dissecting Australian celebrity culture and the fear of getting 'cancelled' bucks this trend.
"I've drawn on the mechanics of ghost-writing and what it's like to sit with a celebrity - usually someone who's pretty famous, certainly much more famous than me - and plum their mind and insecurities and doubts and hopes and dreams and try and make a story out of that."
