High-End Narrative Ghostwriter / Editor – Audio-to-Prose Memoir & Narrative Non-Fiction
Worldwide
We are seeking an elite, highly intuitive narrative ghostwriter and developmental editor to help bring a unique, deeply personal multi-volume book series to life. This project blends historical elements, deep psychological/spiritual exploration, and cinematic storytelling. The source material is entirely real, derived from a massive library of raw audio recordings of live past-life regression sessions. The Workflow: We have optimized this process to respect your time and bypass the "blank page" phase. You are not writing this from scratch. Your workflow will consist of: The Blueprint: You will be provided with a highly detailed, structurally sound, and cinematically paced narrative draft generated through a strict, zero-inference AI framework that follows our exact structural rules. The Soul: You will be provided with the raw audio recordings of the actual regression sessions. Your Mandate: You will listen to the raw audio to capture the "invisible data"—somatic responses, breathing changes, vocal tremors, and raw emotional cues. You will then take the structural draft, seamlessly integrate new audio-derived insights, and completely rewrite the prose line-by-line into a seamless, high-end, human-authored literary voice. We are looking for a master of pacing, sensory description, and emotional depth who can transform an incredibly solid structural outline into an unforgettable, publishable piece of literature. Key Responsibilities: Listen to primary source audio recordings (English) to extract deep emotional and sensory nuances. Use a provided, highly organized AI-generated draft as your structural roadmap. Completely rewrite the prose to eliminate any algorithmic rhythms, ensuring a distinct, compelling, and organic human voice. Maintain absolute adherence to the facts and events detailed in the transcripts and audio (no fabricating external plot points). Deliver polished, publication-ready chapters on an agreed schedule. Required Qualifications: Proven track record in ghostwriting, narrative non-fiction, memoir, or high-end historical fiction (please provide portfolio samples showing strong narrative voice). Exceptional ear for dialogue, human speech patterns, and emotional subtext. Comfortable working in a hybrid AI-human collaborative workflow (viewing the AI as an advanced structural tool, not a replacement for your artistry). Flawless attention to legal and structural boundaries. Legal & Confidentiality (Non-Negotiable): Due to the deeply personal and proprietary nature of the source material, this project is strictly governed by a Work Made for Hire (WFH) agreement. 100% of all intellectual property, rights, audio, transcripts, and final prose belong exclusively to the Client from inception. A strict Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is required before any project materials are shared. You will not have portfolio or attribution rights for the final published book. Budget & Logistics: This is a long-term, multi-volume project. We prefer to work on a Fixed-Price per milestone (per chapter or per book segment) basis to keep deliverables clear and predictable. Please submit your proposal, a brief description of your experience with memoir/narrative non-fiction, and relevant writing samples.
