Professional Bio
Emily Crookston is an award-winning author, business book ghostwriter, and developmental editor who helps thought leaders turn their big ideas into books that sell.
As the Owner of The Pocket PhD, Emily works with founders, leaders, and entrepreneurs to find their message, structure their story, and write a book that actually moves the needle. Her first book, Unwritten: The Thought Leader’s Guide to Not Overthinking Your Business Book, offers a behind-the-scenes look at how to write with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
A former professor of philosophy, Emily brings her background in critical thinking and communication to every stage of the writing process. Today, she’s a speaker and podcast guest, known for her signature session, “How to Write, Market & Make Money with Your Business Book.”
When she’s not writing intensely, she’s probably practicing yoga intensely. Emily also enjoys hiking, reading, and watching Jeopardy! with her husband. She lives for desserts topped with real whipped cream.
