Life-Focused Non-Fiction Book
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I’m ready to turn a series of personal reflections and researched insights on life into a full-length, non-fiction book and I’m looking for a skilled ghostwriter to take the lead on the manuscript.
Scope
• Content type: a complete book (not blog posts or articles).
• Genre: non-fiction.
• Central theme: the meaning, challenges, and practical lessons of life—not a straight memoir, yet more personal than a traditional self-help manual.
What I’ll provide
– A detailed chapter outline, key anecdotes, and supporting research links.
– Ongoing access for interviews or clarifications.
What I need from you
– A compelling first draft of roughly 55,000–70,000 words.
– Clear, engaging voice that balances storytelling with actionable takeaways.
– Proper chapter structure, smooth transitions, and a persuasive conclusion.
– Two revision passes after my feedback.
– Final files in editable Word format, ready for professional editing/layout.
Ideal background
You’ve previously ghostwritten or authored non-fiction titles, know how to distill complex ideas into relatable prose, and are comfortable collaborating through shared documents and regular check-ins.
Acceptance criteria
1. Full manuscript delivered to agreed length.
2. Tone aligns with sample pages I’ll share.
3. Citations or attributions included where research is quoted.
4. Revisions addressed within 10 days of receiving notes.
If this sounds like a journey you’d enjoy, let’s discuss timelines and milestones so we can bring these life lessons to the page together.
