Description
Experience Level: Entry
I seek a skilled narrative non-fiction writer to craft a biography detailing an individual's life journey and accomplishments. The subject has lived an intriguing life filled with experiences, both triumphs and hardships, that would fascinate readers. What is required is a nuanced, thoroughly researched account that brings the subject's story to life on the page in an engaging yet sympathetic manner. The successful candidate will conduct in-depth interviews with the subject and those closest to them, uncover primary source materials when available, and immerse themselves in relevant contextual knowledge to achieve an authentic portrayal. Organization, timeline establishment and weaving together of events will require deft handling. Descriptions must be vivid yet judiciously selective to maintain a readable flow. In presenting the subject's humanity through both words and subtext, empathy and discretion are paramount. While meeting high standards of credibility and scholarship, the narrative style employed should be absorbing for general readers. Candidates must demonstrate excellent skills in narrative pacing, scene-setting, characterization and maintaining reader interest through to conclusion. A track record of completed biographical works shall be considered strongly in the selection process. The contracted writer will be granted extensive access to the subject and support materials to fulfill this special project envisioned to illuminate both individual and epoch. Quality of submission will be the decisive factor for those interested in this engaging opportunity.
