Let me say first of all that my bid is arbitrary because you do no state the length of the project. My rate is around 15$ per thousand words depending on the amount of editing, writing needed. I am a published writer and novelist and have experience both in writing biography and fiction and in editing and ghostwriting. I teach English and have a diploma in proofreading and editing. I will send you examples of my work should you require them.

Hi,although I can't tell you that Im an experienced biographer, but as far as writing is concerned generally , I know I can do any job perfectly, since I'm a published writer, researcher, editor and literary scholar.Hence I want to bid for this biography job and Im determined to turn in a qualitative job.This is a serious project and hence the somewhat high remuneration.

I have helped with another persons' autobiography of their family member- I thoroughly enjoyed the work, and will jump at the chance to perform interviews and transcribe from notes- the story of a life. I have spent my life on writing. I don't want JUST a job, I want an adventure. I believe I could satisfy all your companies' needs and go far beyond them. Please contact me for further information and to get started with the work today! Haley Perez [Removed by GAF Admin]

The Project details are insufficient. Would you please tell me: 1. Do I have to prepare the questions live? 2. What are the other details I'd be provided, about the person (who wants his/her biography written)? 3.Would it be possible to interact with that person? Or it got to be (always)through you? 4. What is the time given to complete the works on /for One client? 5. What about proofreading? PDF conversion and all that? 6. Number of drafts. How many times? Each time paid extra? I have quoted $750. But I'd need $2000 on the assumption that each client would have about 400 pages/500 words per page of his/her history. Anything less, (if you are aiming for 200 pages/around) would be like bio-data, rather than biography. I have October free. If you think of hiring me, you have to 'advance book' me. Contact me, if you need more details. Thank you, Tom

Hi, I'm an experienced journalist, specialising in biographical profiles. I have a MA in Journalism from the University of Montana. I have written many profiles of varying length, on subjects including Nobel Peace Laureates, novelists, human rights activists, musicians and many others. I have ghost written on occasion for some very famous people (not at liberty to divulge details in public). I work at a rate of $375 per 1000 words, if doing an article from scratch (including research, interviews, etc). I work quickly and efficiently. I have put down 7 days as a turnaround time, but this depends very much on the sophistication of the work involved and the availability of relevant sources. It could be quicker or slower. Please feel free to contact me for examples of my work.
