I need to find somebody to help me finish a book

$25-50 USD / hour

Cancelled
Posted over 5 years ago

$25-50 USD / hour

I have a pretty technical sounding manuscript, not totally suitable for a lay audience. I need help making it more lay-friendly, which would include helping me tell stories, rather than describing concepts. It would be essential for the writer to have a good knowledge of science, and some comfort with Buddhist philosophy.

“Offer me this job,” he said, “and I’ll take it and make you proud!” That’s not the traditional way to open the cover letter for a job application, but I take the “creative” in creative writing very seriously. Indeed, an employer can expect from me consistent creativity and seriousness of purpose. After years of study, I have mastered the techniques, mechanics, and, most importantly, dynamics which make the written word engaging. I strive, in innovative ways, to craft complex ideas into accessible and readable concepts that jump off the page and into the reader’s thoughts. In my opinion, capturing the moment is only part of the craft. Of equal or greater importance is building reader interest and involvement — making the reader an actual participant in the moment. Being able to do so is one of my greatest skills. Therefore, when that moment arrives, I am confident that the message, and with it, the story, will “pop” so as to evoke the desired emotional response. Over the years, I have honed my writing skills to enable flawless execution in meticulous language. I will not only help you with the hook, line, and sinker, I will get you into the boat and take you to the biggest catch.

Hi, I am an Australian writer. I had a look at your attachment and I have experience in writing about hypnotherapy and I am spiritual, but understand the tenets of Buddhism. One of my niche areas is taking technical content and making it more readable for anyone. With more than 20 years experience, I started out as a journalist. Since then I have worked on countless projects with success. Please see my portfolio and reviews. Would it be possible to see your manuscript? I invite you to open a conversation about your project requirements. Thank you

Dear Friend: I am a professional ghostwriter and editor of memoirs, business books and DIY books. My resume includes more than 50 books, written for personal reason or business purposes. Some examples of my previous projects: https://www.freelancer.com/projects/Copywriting/Write-chapter-for-personal-development/ https://www.freelancer.com/projects/Ghostwriting/Write-Book-8329124/ https://www.freelancer.com/projects/Content-Writing/Edit-rewrite-assistance/ https://www.freelancer.com/projects/project-8379918/ https://www.freelancer.com/projects/Ghostwriting/Write-Book-10102052/ https://www.freelancer.com/projects/Ghostwriting/need-help-with-writing-ghostwriting/ The most essential ability a ghostwriter possesses is the art of storytelling. My work will always tell a story, presented in an interesting way that is easy for your audience to read. See what my clients are saying: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Zackkhan19#/reviews The ghostwriting process depends on you. Whether you want to sit with me and write a book from scratch or let me do the conceptualizing and writing while you provide the ideas - I am up to the challenge. Kind regards, Zack Khan

Hi! Having looked at the file you've shared, I'd love to hear more about what you have in mind for the manuscript—general outline, intended audience, and more. I've helped dozens of would-be authors pull their books together, from original idea all the way through to publishing and all the revisions and edits that go with that process, and would love to discuss this with you further. For most books, this requires a mix of skills, whether any requisite research (for which my academic background makes me well-suited), editing (narrative shaping all the way down to line and copy editing, fact-checking, and proofreading) and any necessary ghostwriting. Please reach out so we can discuss further; I'm happy to share manuscript samples and answer any questions you may have. Thanks for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hopefully speaking more soon!

Greetings! If you are looking for simple regurgitated material please do not select me for the job. I am a professional. I do high level, top of the line writing with excellent grammar. If I am given a reasonable time-frame for completion, I'll get it done. I am also an author of many non-fiction books so I am not new to writing, rewriting, editing, and proofreading material. If I can be of value, please don't hesitate to select me. Thanks Faiza Gull

Hi there, your project sounds fascinating. I enjoy writing to help others achieve their visions on paper - and this would include illustrating concepts in a storyline manner - showing rather than telling! I might have enough knowledge to be of value to you... I have edited several books on Buddhism and have a broad general knowledge.

I read your sample and was impressed. Would you want someone to edit that piece as a sample? I once worked as a Technical Consultant for Heath company. Part of my job was to bring our engineers' syntax down a notch to a level that a layperson would understand. Could that be applied here? I am not a Buddhist. I'm a Baptist, but at least they both start with "B", eh? Hello! My name is David Seaman and I am a Preferred Editor and Proofreader associated with freelancer.com. To keep my preferred status, I am required to consistently achieve high levels of customer satisfaction by producing quality results within agreed-to deadlines, respecting the original budgets.

I would like to discuss your manuscript with you. Perhaps we can come up with a working arrangement. I will say your requirements for this piece are unique, and the text is a step up from what I have been used to. Thank you.
