Write & Publish Non-Fiction Book

Job ID: 39750326

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I have a non-fiction idea aimed at an adult readership and I’m ready to turn it into a finished, publicly available book. The topic sits outside the usual self-help, history, or science shelves, so I need someone who can shape original material, organise research, and craft a clear, engaging narrative that resonates with adult readers.

Here’s what I’d like us to achieve together:

• Ghost-write or co-write a full-length manuscript based on my notes, interviews, and reference materials, maintaining my voice throughout.
• Provide developmental editing, line editing, and a final proof to ensure the text is polished and publication-ready (Microsoft Word or Google Docs workflow is fine).
• Format the interior for both print and e-book—ideally using tools such as Adobe InDesign or Vellum—and supply press-ready PDF plus EPUB/MOBI files.
• Create or coordinate a professional cover (front, spine, back) that meets trim and resolution requirements.
• Guide me through the self-publishing process—ISBN registration, Amazon KDP/Kindle Direct Publishing upload, and any other recommended platforms—until the book is live and purchasable.

Acceptance criteria: final manuscript approved by me, print and e-book files validated by KDP previewer, and a live product page I can share with readers.

If you have experience taking non-fiction projects from raw concept to published title, I’d love to hear how you’d approach this one and see samples of books you’ve shepherded to market.
