- Hi.
I am putting the finishing touches on an E-book. I am using INDesign(Adobe) software and expect to be finished by the end of the week. I am not a professional writer, yet I have been itching to do and complete this book for some time now. It's a book whose time has come.
Stylistically, it somewhat falls into a how-to book with some good old fatherly wisdom. It is written in a casual linguistic style that I would like maintained. The words used and the sentence construction is, and I am guessing, at the 6 - 8th grade level: I want it that way. I want the book to have a broad appeal. I want it easily read by young people starting out regardless of educational level. I want it easily understood and digestible.
The book is fairly anecdotal. The book will be supported by a YouTube channel.
First and foremost the book needs another set of eyes - i.e. proofreading.
Secondly, I am open to suggested format and editing changes if you are well versed in how the Adobe software actually performs online. I would be happy to review (and pay) for something you have produced for another client.
The format of the book is simple and powerful:
outlined first is the problem/challenge
second are solutions, highlighted or different backdrop in another color, on a subsequent page
third, the backstory - a compilation of anecdotes outlining why the solutions will work
The book is simple it should end up between 50 - 100 pages. The online version will be released first.
Is this the type of project for you? Please advise and give me some estimates on when you can start and how long it will take please.
Best regards,
Gregg
