Contest Brief

I am looking for ghostwriter to write an interesting article that discusses the contents of a 16 minute Apple marketing video created in 1984. This article is intended for reading by people interested in vintage computers. The theme, interest point, and storyline is up to ghostwriter to develop.

Link to video being discussed:
https://archive.org/details/Steve_Jobs_in_an_internal_promo_video_for_the_Macintosh_1983

Requirements
1. Article should have a catchy headline that invites interest
2. Article should be around 800-1000 words in length
3. Article to be written in English and in a style that is interesting, positive and fun.
4. Uses the following keywords: Apple Macintosh, vintage computers, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs
5. Assume that the reader has access to conveniently view the video but may not have watched the video when reading the article.
6. The text shall be original but may contain elements from the public domain.

The intended website doesn't generally attribute writers to articles as the pages generally get revised and updated over time. As a ghostwriter, this article will not be attributed to you.

All rights, including but not restricted to publishing rights, copyright, rights to modify without restriction, right to distribute without restrictions, right to transfer ownership shall me mine.

    I've just realised that I may have accidently repeated one sentence in the document. Apologies for this - I only got started writing it last night, and because I have epilepsy a lack of concentration is a side-effect of the medication I take. Anyway, feedback for my work will be much appreciated.

      How does the contestant holder seal the entry? One entrant sealed theirs on their own. I would suggest you follow that process.

    Team, once again thank you for your interest. I have written notes on the entry pages to give constructive feedback. Please do not take my approach as negative but I would be wasting everyone's time if I didn't give any critical feedback. One again, I hope that you are getting some writing enjoyment out of this competition.

    Thanks for the submissions and feedback to date. The original AUD$30 competition value was based on the similar competitions I found on freelancer.com when I searched "write article". I have tripled the competition value to AUD$90. (Cheers Marcia C.)

    Any chance you can increase the prize? I see you haven't gotten any valid entries yet. Would love to enter (the video is fascinating) ... but $21 U.S. isn't very much of a prize. Well ... ?
