In a powerful and emotional episode of Voices for VoicesⓇ, ghostwriter David Solomon bravely exposes the dark underbelly of exploitation in the Christian publishing world. As the ghostwriter behind "Sound of Freedom" and numerous Christian fantasy works, Solomon shares his traumatic experience with manipulation, abuse of power, and the exploitation of young writers in religious publishing circles.
Solomon's personal journey began in 2009 when a church pastor convinced him and other young people to burn their creative works. "I, like hundreds of other children, took a match and burned our writing or comic books or anything secular that we had laying around," Solomon recounts. This devastating moment stripped him of his identity as a writer and placed his creative output under the control of church leadership who claimed ownership of all intellectual property. This experience helps explain the formation of writing groups like Realm Makers, which Solomon describes as havens for those who've been spiritually abused by religious leaders who condemned their creative expression.
At the heart of Solomon's message is the disturbing pattern he's observed: established Christian authors targeting vulnerable young writers, soliciting their ideas through private messages, using their creative content without credit or compensation, and maintaining inappropriate relationships with minors. "You labor traffic these kids to write your books. That is a crime," Solomon states emphatically. He describes a system where trusted Christian authors exploit young fans' admiration to extract creative work while isolating them from parental supervision. This pattern mirrors the exploitation seen in secular entertainment industries but operates under the guise of religious mentorship.
The episode serves as an urgent warning to parents, young writers, and the Christian publishing community. Solomon outlines four key points for protection: ensuring writers are in healthy environments that support their creative calling, recognizing that even spiritual leaders should never position themselves as beyond question, maintaining dignity in all professional relationships, and carefully vetting the people you allow into your creative circle. "Know who your kid is talking to," Solomon implores parents, sharing stories of authors who have stolen ideas, artwork, and writing from minors without providing credit or compensation.
For those in the Christian writing community, Solomon's message is clear: exploitative practices cannot hide behind spiritual language. "Are you serving God or are you serving the devil?" he asks those who claim to be Christian writers while engaging in predatory behavior. His passion stems from the dozens of messages he receives from families experiencing these issues, and his determination to prevent others from suffering the abuse he endured. As both a survivor and successful ghostwriter, Solomon is using his platform to expose unethical practices and protect the next generation of creative voices.
