Hello, I am looking for a ghostwriter. The writing is in the style of The Richest Man in Babylon. A theme in ancient Babylon (1500BC) that explains financial principals through parables.
I am an engineer on a boat by trade, so creative writing it rather difficult for me. Yet I have consumed a great many audiobooks. So the writing style for this project is that I will lay out the 30%-60% of the writing, and I need someone to come in and turn by stiff, bland and clunky paragraphs into a story.
I will provide the financial information and the structure of the parable to convey the information, then the writer will come in and turn it into a story with dialogue. I think of it as I'm providing the trunk of the tree, but I desperately need someone to provide the branches and leaves.
We have 2 projects we are working on. The first one is an 8,000 word addition to The Richest Man In Babylon. It is pre-written, most by me, some by other ghostwriters. It needs to be edited/rewritten to flow better.
The second project is a stock market book based off the Theme of The Richest Man in Babylon, but set in the fictional city of Atlantis. It will be a rather long book that lays out, in detail, the entire stock market. Like ..."you see, then current ratio is -.5, now tell me my child, if you must pay 2 coppers to eat a day, and your job only pays you 1 copper a day, you will go hungry soon. Yes?"
FYI, these works are written in the gender neutral pronoun Zir.
