Please provide your sample
I am looking for a good, competent and affordable book writer . The book you are going to write is on African Dwarf Frogs, these are a type of aquatic frogs. The finished product will be sold as an ebook and also as a hard copy book.
The book will have to include relevant keywords for African Dwarf Frogs.
I will give a list of keywords to the provider who wins to make sure you will include everything relating to those keywords in the book. I will also give you a content table for some of my other animal books so you can see what type of book I am expecting.
Total page count for the book including cover, foreword, index, etc.... needs to be between 120 and 150 pages. This page count can include several pictures and every new chapter can start on the right page of the book.
Size of the book in Ms Word as follows:
Width 15,24 cm
Height: 22.86cm
Header and Footer 1,25cm from edge
Top, Bottom, Left and Right margins : 2cm
Finished book size (closed and front view): 6 x 9"
Typeface size: Garamond 12 or Palatino Linotype 12
Important:
- The book needs to be written in simple, easy to read language.
- The end results needs to be delivered in MS Word format, proof read.
- Book content needs to be original, unique content, no copying and pasting allowed from text that you have found in your research. Must pass copyscape test. Must have great content and practical tips.
You will have to do your own research on the subject. Obviously chapters about the following are only logic to include :
-Foreword
-Acknowledgements
-Content table
- what are aquatic frogs
- what is an African Dwarf Frogs
- are there different types
- what to know before you get one
- best to buy some or just one
- can they mixed with fish in the same aquarium
- History and original source of African Dwarf Frogs
- pros and cons of owning African Dwarf Frogs
- life spam
- what to know before buying one
- where to buy them USA and UK
- how much do they cost
- how to care for one
- easy to care for or not
- breeding
- feeding, what, how often, etc...
- good health and possible illnesses and how to cure them
- training, can you train them
- what medical problems can there be and how to solve them
- where do they live in e.g. cage, small aquarium
- what is ideal temperature, light, etc...
- do you need a licence to keep? USA and UK.
- insurance?
- daily care
- I have read that African Dwarf frogs are often confused with and sold as African Clawed Frogs whilst they are different animals so it is important to write about this in the book and to make sure readers understand the difference.
- list of relevant websites e.g. where to buy suitable aquarium, food, etc...
- index
- etc.... etc....
This content list is by no means complete and I would expect you to add a lot more content.
-Pictures that you will use in the book have to be bought preferably from stock-photo websites. I can pay you for the pictures separate. Maximum 30 pictures in the book, size of the pictures to be maximum 1/4 of 1/2 page. Pictures should not be used as page fillers. If you do find royalty free pictures, I need to see the source.
- You need to make the chapter titles as headers and use the sections in word in order to make this happen. By using F9 or F10, the content table need to automatically adjust when I want to make changes to the finished product. You know what I mean if you are an experienced book writer.
- More jobs for you in the future if you do a good job as I publish a new book every 4 to 6 weeks.
My requirement for applicants :
-Preferably English Native speakers only to apply for the job OR be almost perfect in English. I certainly do not want to read the book and find hundreds of mistakes.
I have selected the budget between $500.00 and $1000.00 but if I can find a suitable writer for under $500.00, that would be ideal.
Regards
Chris
Maybe it is a crazy (happy?)coincidence that I just completed a teacher's guide on Differentiating African Dwarf Frog from African Clawed Frogs as part of a Wetlands Ecology Series. (See attachment in PMB)
I have done all the preliminary researches for this ebook project, if basing on your initial laundry list of topics. I have an existing database on African dwarf frogs from various sources. What I don't have are images. If I may, it might be interesting and informative as well to include health concerns, ecological values, and reproduction in your ebook.
Yes, I am very interested to work with you on this.
Error free, grammatically correct, great sentence structure, copyscape-passed, nice flow of information, and direct to the point are the things that I guarantee in my writing outputs.
As a native English writer, editor, proofreader with MSc. in Zoology and a passion for Biology, I would be absolutely delighted to work with you on this project.
I am masters in science and been teaching science for 9 years. I am really enthusiastic to work on this project. looking forward for your favorable response.
I wrote about the environment and native animals when an editor at an English-language newspaper, until recently. Please see my work in the attached sample, which includes an ebook of mine that I have just published.
Interesting topic. As I write,I can see two big green Thai frogs in my front pond that I raised from young and now are pets.
Reasons you need to hire me:
1. I am a published author of five books, so I know what it takes to get published.
2. I am an editor with 13 years' experience, so I know how to write well.
3. I am new to this site, so your work won't be just one project of dozens of others.
4. Because I am new, I am willing to be lower in order to establish my credibility
