If you are looking for quality writing, quick turnarounds, and a competitive price, then look no further. I am a seasoned writer with 6-plus years of publishing experience which includes 10 traditional print books. I am a thirty-something mother with a crazy imagination and I have a beautiful son who is the inspiration for much of my writing. My passion for great stories has been a part of who I am for as long as I can remember. Like most authors, many of my childhood days were spent pouring over favorites such as The Secret Garden, Twelve Dancing Princesses and of course The Chronicles of Narnia. I can't attach sample here but here are few lines for your sample Ollie and the Bear Go To School “All right, class,” said Miss Riley, “you know what today is, don’t you?” Ollie slapped his forehead. Another Show-and-Tell day, he thought. Another day he forgot to bring anything to school to show to the class. “Now,” said Miss Riley, “did anyone bring anything to show the class?” Mattie Copeland brought several things, of course—boring things, as far as Ollie was concerned. A few other kids brought photographs or souvenirs from recent trips, which Ollie found somewhat interesting. Still, there was nothing very interesting about today’s Show-and-Tell. At least, not until it was Wade Waggoner’s turn to show the class what he’d brought.

Hello, I have four children, daughters, on my own, and during 15 years, not a single day passed without a bedtime story, from my own creation most of the times. I love the children world, the fairies, pixies and all these little people and the magic that is in a child's world. I can write in children's words and I can create beautiful stories. Hire me and you won't be disappointed. My rate would be 15$ per story. Thank you for giving me a chance. Please have a look at my profile. Hope to hear from you soon. Here is a small sample - as much as space will allow me : In the little village of Sleeptown, whenever a child is born, a tree is planted in his garden. So at the same time as the child grows, the little tress also grows. Through the window of his room, Sam keeps his watch. Because, as the years pass, he realizes that something is wrong. In the nearby gardens, all the tres are changing and growing as seasons pass by. In winter, they bend their branches under the snow. In spring, the buds grow. In summer, small white flowers open up amid beautiful green leaves, and in autumn yellow leaves fall gracefully on the green gras. But not his tree. Sam's tree stays dry and shriveled, its fragile body like a piece of wood stuck in the ground.....(to be continued)

Hello, I read the terms of your project and I am very interested in this work. As a content writer and as a teacher, I have more than 10 years of experience in teaching children, writing stories, articles and creative educational aids. With my creative abilities and innovative skills, I can provide original stories within the given framework. Could you please clarify these points- 1. Can I take animal characters instead of children (in some stories)? 2. Is the total payment $150 for 10 stories(6+4)? If it is, then it is very low amount. 3. Will you give any bonus? Upon request, I can send my sample story. I look forward to an opportunity to work with you. Thanks. Kuldeep Kaur

I'd love to be given the opportunity to write for you! I'm very creative, and have a zest for life and children that will come in handy. I have many ideas for children's books that I could spin out quickly, so I'd be able to work within any deadline.
