Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Num. of words: 30,000
Tone: Informal/Casual
Extensive research needed: no
Extra notes: I have written a short Stop Smoking Book of 67 A4 Pages which describes how I stopped smoking after 22 years of trying to quit. Basically my method is based on a mental technique that I discovered which the smoker applies in the action of smoking. The book is written from a personal point of view and it covers interesting stories about people and smoking, the dangers of smoking and it tries to inform, engage and teach the technique. So far I have written the full manuscript of the book, but since I am not a native English speaker I realize that I need help with the language, English expressions that I don’t use intuitively, create more fluency, be a bit witty, to enrich the language and to generally sound better and more engaging than it currently does.
This will involve rewriting sentences, paragraphs, infusing a bit of humoristic touch which the book lacks, rearrange content etc. You would also look at the book structure, chapter structure to ensure it all is fluent and logical and to remove or ad repetitions as seen fit.
Many self help books has a reoccurring central theme i.e my methodology but I don’t know if I have repeated it sufficiently or too much or in the right way.
So far only 4 people have tried my method but “all” four has stopped, so there is a 100 % success rate so far which is very encouraging.
I want to mould the style of writing to a similar style of a very well known diet book that uses very simple but engaging language. So you would need to buy and read that book to understand what kind of language I am after.
If you are an experienced ghost writer and have ghost written nonfiction books, are very confident in your writing and language abilities and you believe you can describe things in a simple, fluent and engaging way please do get in touch.
Kind regards,
