I run a growing digital-first business and I’m ready to push a slate of e-books live. My immediate priority is to turn completed manuscripts into polished, retail-ready titles and launch them on Amazon KDP. Here’s the workflow I need you to own from end to end: • Clean, professional interior formatting that passes KDP preview without errors (whether we settle on ePub, PDF, or MOBI is up to your proven process). • A striking front cover, spine and back cover that meet Amazon’s exact pixel and bleed specifications while capturing each book’s style. • Metadata, keywords, pricing, and category set-up so every listing is discoverable from day one. • Final upload, launch, and a short hand-off guide so I can duplicate the process for future t...

I have a completed manuscript that I am preparing to pitch to publishers, and I want a clear, professional copyright proposal that spells out who owns every part of the work. The focus is exclusively on ownership—no licensing or usage terms at this stage—so the document must make it unmistakable that all intellectual property rights remain with me as the author. What I need from you is a concise yet thorough proposal that opens with a brief introduction, gives an accurate description of the book, identifies any unique creative elements, and then sets out the legal language confirming my sole ownership. It should read well to both creative teams and legal departments, ideally in a format I can present as-is to potential partners. Please base the work on current copyright best ...

I’m ready to take my 60,000-word Sci-fi manuscript live on Amazon and need a specialist who can shepherd it from raw file to “Publishing — LIVE” status on both Kindle and KDP Paperback. The text itself is locked; no proofreading or editing is required. Your focus will be layout, navigation, and a professional cover that meets every KDP spec the first time. Scope of work • Interior layout: Format the manuscript for a 6 × 9-inch paperback and a reflowable Kindle edition, embedding a functional Table of Contents that lists chapter titles with page numbers. • Cover creation: Design an illustrated front, back, and spine that fits the 6 × 9 trim, taking bleed, barcode zone, and spine width into account. I prefer graphics or pictures rather than a ...

I need an experienced story writer to craft a full-length thriller novel for me. The project starts from a clean slate—no outline, no characters predefined—so I rely on your creativity and command of suspense, pacing, and plot twists. I will own full rights to the finished manuscript; please be comfortable writing under a ghost-writing arrangement. Scope • Work with me to agree on a high-level premise and key beats. • Produce a detailed chapter outline before drafting. • Deliver a complete novel-length manuscript, professionally edited and ready for publication (digital and print). Acceptance Criteria 1. Outline approved by me before you begin drafting. 2. Final word count appropriate for a commercial thriller novel (let’s discuss your recommend...

I’m the author of a book called Men in Repair (around 141 pages), which is already published on Amazon. However, I haven’t done any proper marketing yet because I strongly feel the book needs a professional “lift” before taking it to a global level. I’m not looking for basic proofreading — I’m looking for someone who can step in as a true “book doctor.” The book is built around a powerful concept: An engineering-inspired framework for men dealing with pressure, setbacks, and rebuilding themselves — using structured “gears” like mindset, discipline, faith, and purpose. It’s direct, raw, and practical — not typical self-help. What I need: Deep editing (structure, flow, clarity, tone) Strengthening the im...

I have an ebook draft in Microsoft Word that needs a clean, publication-ready layout. I’m looking for someone who can apply consistent styles to all headings and subheadings, align and label every table and figure properly, and set up running page numbers with polished headers and footers throughout the file. The final document should look just as good on screen as it does when exported to PDF for print or Kindle conversion. Please keep my existing text intact while fixing any spacing inconsistencies, orphan lines, or misaligned graphics that you spot along the way. Deliverables • Updated, well-structured Word (.docx) file • Print-ready PDF that mirrors the Word version • A short note outlining any style changes or tips for future edits I’d love to r...

My science-fiction manuscript is finished, except for Contents page, and now I need it packaged professionally for Amazon KDP. I’m looking for someone who can: • Format the interior so the paperback and Kindle versions flow cleanly—proper margins, paragraph styles, page numbers, headers, and active TOC links. • Design a striking, illustrative cover that captures a futuristic vibe. I need a cohesive front, back, and spine that meet KDP’s bleed and trim guidelines as well as their exact pixel and PDF specs. • Deliver press-ready PDFs for paperback plus a high-resolution JPEG for the ebook thumbnail, along with the editable source files. If you’ve handled KDP layouts before and enjoy creating imaginative sci-fi artwork, this should be straightforwa...

I’m ready to turn a story idea that’s been living in my head into a complete, full-length novel and I need a skilled ghostwriter to make that happen. You’ll take my loose notes, thematic goals, and character sketches (I’ll share these once we begin) and craft a manuscript that flows from a tight outline through to a polished final draft of roughly 70–90k words—open to your guidance on exact length. Here’s how I picture the collaboration: we first agree on an outline, produce an opening sample of about 10k words so we can lock in tone and pacing, move to a halfway draft for structural tweaks, and finish with the full manuscript ready for professional editing. Clear, scheduled milestones keep both of us on track and give space for feedback at each s...

I have a completed drama screenplay that runs about 90–110 pages. Now I need it laid out in proper industry format so it’s ready to circulate to indie and boutique studios as well as the streaming platforms I’m targeting. The draft already contains all the dialogue and action, but it still sits in a rough Word document. Your task is to translate it into true screenplay form—Courier 12-pt, one-inch margins, consistent slug lines, accurate scene numbers if needed, and clean page breaks. Dialogue should follow the standard placement, with parentheticals, extensions and continued marks handled correctly; no unusual voiceover or off-screen conventions are required beyond the usual (but please tag any flashbacks clearly, as the story moves back in time several times). I...
