Description: We would like help writing a book to chart the experiences, lessons, etc. from having a terminally ill child. I would like to think of the project as sort of an inverse of Randy Pausch's The Last Lecture.

Additional Info (Added 6/22/2009 11:00 (EST))...

Here is a little more information about us and our project. We are two college educated professionals with a terminally ill 2 year old daughter. She has a rare genetic disorder currently affecting a total of three children in the world that we know of.

Our goal for this book is to relay our thoughts, emotions, lessons, etc. The narrowest definition of our audience would be other parents and family members of a special needs or terminally ill child. We would also like it to be broad enough to act as a motivational/insight book to a larger audience.

We are currently working on a rough outline of subjects we would like to talk about. I am estimating that the final work will come in around 50,000 words. We are picturing the relationship with the writer as a collaborative effort where we are able to write our thoughts (or record them) and the writer is able to turn it into a narrative. Just a warning, obviously, this is our first run at a project like this so I’m sure they’ll be hiccups on our end but there is no lack of desire for us to finish this project just the time to compose it. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to contact us directly. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration of this project.

Your story resonates a lot with me. As a very recently new mother, I nearly lost my child during the delivery. I am also intrigued by the mystery of life, the purpose of suffering and the lessons we should take from these joys and challenges. In writing this story with yourselves, both these and your objectives shall be honoured. I estimate approximately 50 hrs of work to edit, organise and polish your written records into a backbone text for $899. Should you wish additional hours, my rate is $18 per hour. Online interviews are also an option. In addition to ghost-writing services, as a qualified publisher, I can also design your book with your special photographs for an additional $599. Wishing your family well.

First of all, I'm paraplegic this past 3 decades. I met a vehicular accident when I was a member of the Armed Forces. But now I'm into freelancing, online writing, and biography writing. You can assign this to me for the specified bid.

Greetings, I would be pleased to assist with your writing project. I am an experienced ghostwriter, capable of writing in a multitude of genres. I take a particular interest in writing narratives with a message, such as yours. I realize that your efforts will be a labor of love, designed to memorialize and perpetuate your daughter's tender humanity and courage. It would be a privilege to edify your text in her honor and to witness the finished product. I can also properly format the manuscript and guide you through to publication. I welcome any questions you may entertain and send warm wishes to you and your dear girl. Gabriella

I have outstanding credentials for your project. I am the co-author of 8 successful books for major houses, including two NY Times best sellers. I've covered topics ranging from rock & roll to neuroscience, biography to business leadership. I can send several high-quality samples on your request. I'm especially good at creating a voice on the page that's an accurate reflection of each individual client.

I am a professional ghostwriter specializing in nonfiction. I provide industry standard, professionally edited manuscripts of 200 to 300 pages within 3 to 6 months, depending on complexity. 50,000 words is about 200 manuscript pages, which is different than book pages. If you need only developmental editing, I can adjust my fee, but much depends on the quality of the writing. You may need combination ghostwriting/developmental editing. My clients make monthly payments and are provided with chapters at regular intervals for review and revision. I provide references and/or a short sample chapter based on the client's story before execution of any contract, free of charge. No offense to any other respondents, but many offer completed, full length manuscripts extremely fast for very low prices. As a professional, I would advise against trusting your story to them. This sounds like a worthwhile project very close to your heart. I would endeavor to make it close to mine.
