What you get with this Offer
I will write your child (or children) into an age-appropriate and completely original story. I can include a theme or lesson of your choice as well as including some educational content on the subject. You can use the story for any non-commercial purpose (including publishing as gifts). If you would like to use it commercially, that can be arranged through a separate agreement.
The scope of this book would be as an "early reader" and I would provide text only, based on Lexile standards for vocabulary and grammar that are targeted toward your young child. This story would be approximately 500 words.
For slightly older kids or more in-depth stories, I offer the option to write a story of between 800 and 1,100 words.
The additional "chapter book" option will take a MINIMUM of five extra days; because I need to engage with the client on the story, it may take longer depending on your feedback and whether I need to do any additional research. Final length depends upon the actual story, but chapter books tend to run longer than 6,000 words and up to 10,000 words.

What the Freelancer needs to start the work
Give me as many details as you wish about the child or children you want featured (age is essential), as well as at least three subjects that the main child is interested in. (Is she fascinated by astronomy, farms or mermaids? Let me know!) If you have an idea for a plot, I'd love to use it. My goal is to customize the characters enough so that the children will recognize themselves and be engaged with the story. I also will try to include a valuable lesson of some sort, so if you have one in mind for me to begin with, that is terrific, too.
