Cozy Mystery Novel for Seniors

Job ID: 40577583

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I’m developing a warm, puzzle-driven cozy mystery aimed squarely at senior readers—think gentle intrigue, engaging characters, and a satisfying whodunit without graphic violence. I have the core idea and setting outlined in rough notes, but I need a skilled ghostwriter to bring the full novel to life.

You would take my concept, flesh out the plot, craft relatable mature protagonists, and deliver a polished manuscript ready for beta readers. A clear, pace-controlled structure that respects the expectations of the cozy sub-genre is essential: clues fairly planted, red herrings subtle, and the final reveal both logical and surprising.

Key deliverables
• Detailed chapter-by-chapter outline for approval
• First-chapter sample so we can fine-tune tone and voice
• Complete draft (Microsoft Word or Google Docs)
• One revision pass after my feedback

Experience writing mysteries or fiction for older audiences is a plus, and familiarity with genre conventions—tight plotting, light humor, minimal profanity—will help the project run smoothly. If this sounds like the perfect fit, let’s discuss your approach and timeline so we can set milestones and get started.
