Re-writer for a 7-8 Book Series..

$20-1250 USD

$20-1250 USD

Paid on delivery
Position: Rewriter Positions available: 5 Duration: As long as it takes. Could be a year. In 2010, I’ve came up with an idea that later ended up to be a universe of imagination. There is nothing of its kind out there, and beta-readers agree it’s a category of its own. I wrote the first two books with the third book in rough draft and book four and five waiting for my time to be written. My goal is to be 100% original without using pre-existing mythical creatures or categories like magic. Genre: YA coming-of-age fiction Books: Series of 7-8 Offer: (Will be placed on a contract drafted by a contract lawyer) - Bonus of lifetime maximum $1,000,000 paid at 10% of author’s earnings from book 1 o May include merchandise and movie - Name placed in the book 1 as “Rewriter” - Acknowledgement that you were a rewriter to the public and you get credit for rewriting (I will never take full credit) - One time fixed pay of $20 (proves a paid job) Why do I seek a rewriter? I am a creator. I create the world of my imagination and simply drop people in them to see how they react to the world. I never wanted to be a writer and don’t like reading. I am an engineer. My imagination is what makes the story intriguing. With the help of movies and reading how to write, I was able to achieve a story. I plan far out. I write in a condense manner, like a dried raisin. I need a rewriter to plumb the writing to make it into a juicy fruit by adding rich vocabulary words, interpersonal emotions, dialogue structure, and etc. Why 5 rewriters? I want this series to start great. The more heads to bounce ideas from, the richer the story can be. I make the ultimate decision on what ideas stay. The way this will work is that all rewriters will read the book. They will critique it. Then will learn what was intended to be told from me. Then they will rewrite it. After the rewrite, all rewriters will read each other rewrite version of the book. Then as a team, all will collect the best ideas and make one final rewrite as a team to be the final story. Requirements - Must be a USA citizen - Willing to submit a sample rewrite of 1 paragraph - Very creative with a great imagination - Read plenty of YA books - Knows how to self-edit and self-proofread - Is considered a professional YA writer - Work as a group and share ideas - Willing to understand the whole series to its core by reading a lot of material provided by the author - Skype call Prior beta-readers rate this book as a fun read, creative, imaginative, and worth having. I have one very large flaw with the story that could easily be fixed, it has similarities with Harry Potter. Send me an email/message with your interest and your background. Also send a rewrite sample of the following paragraph: Veeloo looked into the sky and saw light orbs floating down like snow. The sky looked as if the stars fell out of their place and rained upon the lands. Veeloo looked at the ground and the trees saw them glow as the Night Light Drops rested on everything it touched. Then he saw them vanish after a few seconds to a minute.

Like the humble honey bee that is hooked onto the faintest scent of nectar by sheer instinct, I too was immediately attracted to your project. I have an avid reader of fiction and fantasy novels and I aspire to contribute. I've read numerous fantasy series like Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time, Bartimaeus Sequence and so on. Pay is completely negotiable because I'm bidding on this more for the experience than for the pay.

If I am understanding this correctly, what you're trying to get is a team of people who can help revise your book series and turn it into a masterpiece. Is that correct? I am perfect for this job, because it combines two of my favorite subjects: Young Adult Literature and Magic. Ever since I was little, I've watched TV shows and read comics/graphic novels like Sailor Moon, Magical Girl-themed series, Fantasy themes and the like. I also like Harry Potter, which is a plus. What makes us great for the job is that we only require a concept, and from that concept we can create a story and during the whole process, we can go back and forth to ensure it meets your needs. We can do an unlimited amount of revisions, and everything we write is 100% unique, copyright free, grammar-checked and mainly yours to do whatever you want to do with! We have the ability to Skype, although most of our contacts are on Oovoo. Upon accepting us for this job, we will give you our Skype names. REVISED PARAGRAPH: Veeloo looked into the sky and saw beautiful orbs of light. The orbs looked like Night Light Drops falling from the sky as if they were snowflakes. Veeloo watched in amazement as everything the drops rested on, illuminated with an outstanding light. As soon as they came, the lights quickly faded away into the darkness.

I would very much like to work with you on this project, and I am already captured with that short paragraph you revealed in the description. I am a professional writer with a love of writing children's novels. I am currently working on one myself, which I could share some of with you, i f you so desire. Here is the paragraph rewritten, though without knowing the full story may be a little off key, but please let me know what you think. Veeloo peered into the night sky, with eyes filled with wonder and amazement, as orbs floated down with the beauty of the stars and grace of a million ballerinas in perfect union. The ground glistened and tree tops sparkled, like diamonds blanketing the lands. This beautiful menagerie was not made to last however, as they dissolved into oblivion revealing the lands true appearance within a matter of seconds. Thank you, Darren.
